They drove a short distance to the victim’s brother’s house. The brother was forced into the car at gunpoint. The victims were then reportedly beaten with guns while the suspects demanded money. Police said the ordeal lasted for 45-minutes.

Police caught up with the suspects in South Philadelphia. Officers confronted the suspects on the 2000 block of Albright Street. An officer fired at the suspects, but did not hit anyone. One of the suspects fled on foot and the other fled on a bicycle. Both escaped capture. The victims were freed by police and treated for their injuries.

Investigators said they believe the brothers were targeted, but they are unsure why they picked the victims. No arrests have been made at this time.
