After the 79-year old woman had her interaction with this duo, Clemens spoke about the 67-year old husband’s turn in the case.
“The husband was in a room that was just off the garage. The (male suspect) pointed the gun at the husband and demanded cash. He said he didn’t have any and both of them took off running.”
