Fire Marshal: Home attacked twice

Investigators are looking for a pair of criminals who they say exploded acid bombs on a woman's front door.

Police said the incident, which was all caught on home surveillance video, happened at a home in the 13500 block of Gainesway Drive in Cypress.

In the video, a young man is seen running up to the home. He started shaking what Harris County Fire Marshals said is an acid bomb.

"I was sound asleep and heard what sounded like a gunshot," said Becky Bentley, who's home was attacked.

As the culprit runs out of the picture, another person is seen in the video shaking up a second acid bomb before tossing it at the front door.

Both suspects then run away in the video. Seconds later, both bombs go off, sending smoke and fumes into the air.
