A video has emerged showing two men with Liverpool accents storming their way into a house.
The disturbing CCTV footage shows two men kicking down the front door of a house as the occupant's scream in terror.
When the men manage to break in to the property through the front door they could be heard telling the occupant to "put that down now."
The offenders told the occupant that they were going to "kill him" and "smash his wife."
The occupant could be heard screaming for someone to "call the police."
The two men who broke into the house both had Liverpool accents but is not established if the incident took place on Merseyside. It is also not clear when the incident happened.
The ECHO has approached Merseyside Police for comment.
