Terrifying doorbell video has captured the moment a Florida couple was ambushed, shot and robbed just outside their home after hitting a slot machine jackpot at a casino.
Kim Chambliss and her boyfriend Val Delacruz were targeted by two masked assailants soon after they cashed their $3,300 winnings at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Tampa on Aug. 2, Fox 13 reported.
The two alleged perps — later identified as Marcus Jenkins, 34, and Tristin Wright, 36 — had watched the couple gamble and play the slots for roughly two hours before tailing them home just before 5 a.m., cops said.
The suspects allegedly opened fire on the unsuspecting couple in their driveway after demanding they cough up their winnings.
A screaming Chambliss, who took a bullet to the back of the leg, could be seen scrambling to get in the front door as the gunshots rang out, the chilling Ring doorbell video shows.
Her boyfriend, who collapsed in the doorway after being shot in both legs, was seen pleading with the two perps as they towered over the top of him.
“I ran and I fell in the door and the other guy came out and shot me again for the third time in my left leg,” Delacruz said as he recalled the terror.
The suspects fled the scene moments after the ambush with the couple’s cash as well as a watch and a purse, police said.
Chambliss and Delacruz, meanwhile, were both treated at a nearby hospital.
“I lost so much blood,” Delacruz said.
The suspects were later tracked down and arrested after investigators reviewed surveillance footage from the casino.
“We’re just average people, you know, who are out having a good time, you know, who love each other and enjoying each other’s company,” Chambliss said.
“And to know that we didn’t even realize that people were following us every step of the way. It’s scary. It’s scary.”
Jenkins was slapped with a slew of charges, including attempted murder, robbery with a firearm and aggravated battery.
His alleged accomplice was charged with principal to aggravated battery, principal to attempted murder and robbery with a firearm.
