*A father took a bullet meant for his infant son during a home invasion robbery in Kansas City.

Three men, two armed with guns, broke into the home looking for money – terrorizing 26-year-old Ciara DeBarge, who was home with her 24-year-old brother, DeJuante Crawford, his girlfriend and several children.

“One first kicked in the door, yelled police and told us to get down on the floor,” DeBarge told Fox4KC. “There were seven children in the house at the time, children who were so afraid, all of us were. I thought I was gonna die,” she said.

Ciara told police once inside their house the intruders started grabbing her and her family.

“We’d never seen them before in our lives. We’ve only lived here for three-and-a-half months and before that this house was vacant. One of those guys pointed a gun at my brother. My brother tussled with him and another guy grabbed my nephew and threw him across the room and then he shot and then that’s when our dog attacked him, ” said DeBarge.

One of the suspects then quickly shot and killed the family’s pitbull, China.

“The coward shot China eight times. We buried her in our backyard. The same idiot then grabbed my blouse, dragged me to the back of the house, pointed a gun to the back of my head and asked me where’s the money? I had no idea what he was talking about,” said DeBarge.

Moments later, Ciara says one of the robbers tried to shoot her brother’s nine-month-old baby boy.

“Yes he did. He actually fired that gun once and that’s when my brother jumped in front of his baby and got shot in his back trying to save his child. Thank God nobody else was hurt. He could’ve killed my brother’s son. He could’ve killed my brother. Another one could’ve killed me and my brother’s girlfriend and for nonsense. They stole my brother’s two registered guns, robbed us of our peace and everything. I just want the police to catch them,” said DeBarge.

As of Thursday night Kansas City police were still searching for the armed robbers and still looking for a motive.
