posted (May 19, 2015)
Last night we told you about the gruesome home invasion in Teakettle where two Americans were killed: 61 year old Paul David Signorino, as seen in this photo was shot twice to the left side of the head while 47 year old Julian Christopher Jones was chopped multiple times to the head. Jones's ex-wife found them both dead in his home in Teakettle on Friday evening. Police are still following leads and have no one detained or no update on this double murder.

Americans were again the target this time on Friday night in Hopkins. It happened around 7:30 Friday night when 62 year old American Ralph Porter and his wife Juanita Buckles were at home. Porter heard the dogs barking outside and when he went to look he saw 3 masked men emerging from the back of their house. One of the men had a handgun and pointed it in Porter's face and forced him to lie on the floor inside. The men hit him several times to his head with the gun and also assaulted his wife. The men then took both their phones, their laptop and other electronic devices all to a total value of $4,650. They also took $50 in cash. When we spoke to the police today they told us that the house is in an isolated area in the North end of Hopkins and that there is no house within over 900 feet of their property. No one has been detained as yet.
