Man caught on camera breaking into Indianapolis home, takes from mom and children

"When he first came into my living room it was pure anger, but when he walked into my kids' room like, my heart just stops," the victim said.

INDIANAPOLIS — In home security video, you can see a man Christina Bailey says she doesn't know walking through her living room after kicking in her back door on Friday.

The man then makes his way over to the TV and starts removing it from the wall, then proceeds to walk out with it.   

It didn't stop there. 

The man comes back, this time looking through her children's bedroom.

"When he first came into my living room it was pure anger, but when he walked into my kids' room, like, my heart just stops," said Bailey, as she began to cry. 

Bailey says the thief made off with two 55-inch TVs and an Xbox. She said it probably cost her a couple hundred dollars for all of it, but now she's having to fix what was broken — add additional security measures.

"The doors in the back were $558 at Lowes and, unfortunately, I had to get a loan for that, so now I'm in debt. The security bars at Menards are going to cost $399 and I'm getting those, there's no if, ands or buts about that, so if we add that up, that's like a little over a thousand dollars," explained Bailey.

Even with the "no trespass" signs and cameras around the house, Bailey said she can't believe he burglarized her home.

"I'm worried every time I go to work now that someone is going to come into my home while I'm not here or the fact that they're plotting on me. Like, every time I come in and out of my door, anyone that walks up and down my street, now I'm terrified if they're looking at me as a target," Bailey said

And while there may be a sign outside Bailey's home saying welcome, she said that didn't extend to the man responsible for stealing her things. She wants him held accountable.

"I don't want to see that person get hurt. I don't want to see that person get karma. I want him to be arrested for what he did and be in trouble so he realizes what he did is wrong and that it's not OK to make a living from stealing off of hard-working people," said Bailey.

The investigation into the burglary is ongoing.
