The attack involved at least five individuals who descended upon the property. According to reports, one of the perpetrators damaged the curtilage of the property with a hatchet. Concurrently, two others focused their aggression on a car parked outside the house, inflicting substantial damage. The situation escalated dramatically when a fourth member of the gang set the vehicle on fire.
