Horrific Home Invasion on Detroit's West side

Fox says it was 4 men who broke in. Channel 4 says it was 3 men.

Fox says it was sexual assault and makes no mention of rape.

Fox says she was beaten over the head with an object. Chanel 4 says she was physically assaulted, but makes no mention of the object she was assaulted with. Being assaulted with an object is a different crime from being assaulted physically.

I'm confused as to why these nitpicky, minor details are being questioned.

Other than the criminals themselves, apparently the only true witness is the victim and who knows what her mental state is, or was, when trying to give information to the police. It also depends on what officer relayed the information to the various reporters. Small details could be worded differently or even heard incorrectly. "Oh, it was four men? I thought I heard 'three' earlier by another officer."

Who cares?

Bottom line is it's just another unfortunate incident carried out by [[likely, given the neighborhood) a group of thugs looking to make a few bucks the only way they know how. Stealing by force.

It's too bad this woman unknowingly made a target of herself by keeping up a nice home and yard and by having an SUV parked in the driveway.

Yes, for certain the Channel 4 video reporter says rape. It's crazy and horrific to know you are not safe in your own home. And how these criminals are choosing their marks of prey, and do know they are. Course some will get a hot metal projectile surprise coming their way if they try it.
