One of the homes had a Vint smart doorbell, which captured a skinny male suspect wearing a mask and wielding both knives before being startled by the doorbell’s chime and taking off.
“Many homes received an uninvited visitor that was masked and brandishing two very large knives,” Carolina Forest community Facebook group warned in a post.
The post also included the now-viral video of the creepy encounter.
Residents are shaken, with many in the group chat encouraging each other to check camera footage, keep porch lights on, and stay strapped or stay inside.
The Jacksonville Police Department is now investigating and asking anyone with footage or information to come forward. If you saw anything or captured video, you’re urged to call their non-emergency line at 910-938-7585.
