BRENTWOOD, LOS ANGELES, Aug. 16 (KNN) — Multiple suspects broke into an occupied home in the Westside Los Angeles neighborhood of Brentwood late Thursday night.

Los Angeles Police Department West Los Angeles officers responded to a burglary panic alarm around 11:30 p.m. at a residence located in the 12800 block San Vicente Boulevard.

The female resident along with two to three children, hid in a room and called 911 to report three masked males in the residence.

A small suitcase and several pairs of sunglasses were seen strewn at the bottom of the driveway.
