The Overnight Heist
Bobby Suarez, the founder and CEO of SelltoBobby.com, shared his harrowing experience after burglars broke into his Northwest Miami-Dade home. The incident occurred while Suarez, his wife, and their two young daughters were asleep. According to the Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office, the two subjects reportedly jumped a fence and forced their way into the residence.
Surveillance Footage Reveals Intrusion
Surveillance video from outside the home captured a hooded individual tampering with Suarez’s luxury SUV around 3 a.m. Shortly after, two individuals dressed in black hoodies were seen near the home’s entrance.

Inside the home, security cameras recorded the pair searching through the living area, taking what appeared to be two bags.
