At a home in Hancock Park, a mother pushed a stroller and was robbed by two men who followed her through the open driveway gate. 

At around 5 o'clock in the afternoon on Sunday, the camera captured an obvious follow-up robbery. It can be seen that in the historic district west of downtown Los Angeles, when she opened the door in front of her home, she could see the lady entering the access code and entertaining her children with dancing after returning from a walk.

At about the same time, the video showed two men coming out of a car parked across the street. The men walked through the open door, then quickly turned around and walked over to the woman. She pulled the stroller up the steps of the house.

The men demanded property, and the woman handed over all her things—diaper bags and a bottle cooler. The police said that when the woman called 911, the two men returned to the car and left.

The Los Angeles Police and the Hancock Park Homeowners Association alerted residents about the robbery during the day. The police released this 20-minute security camera video to confirm the identity of the thief.

There were no reports of any arrests on Wednesday morning.  

According to Los Angeles police, one of the men was described as black, aged between 20 and 29, wearing a light-colored mask, black hoodie, red sweatpants, white lettering or logo on it, and white shoes. The second man was described by the police as black, aged 20-29, wearing a black mask, gray hoodie, black sweatpants and black shoes.
