A masked goon has been caught on camera attacking a dying woman’s home with a bomb.
Patricia Nelson’s home in Chicago Lawn, Illionois was targeted by two mysterious men in a shocking attack.
‘They were trying to hurt us,’ Nelson told ABC 7.
The home’s ring camera captured the entire incident and showed the attackers – one armed with a baseball bat and the other with an explosive device.
The bomb was thrown towards the front living room window but never made it inside or exploded.
The suspect can apparently be seen throwing an incendiary device from the front lawn while the other bashes away at the door.
Nelson’s daughter Nishia Thornton said: ‘I was screaming, “Get down! Stay down! Are you OK?” I’m more worried about her than myself.’
‘That’s the scary part. Because what I didn’t realize initially is my mom’s oxygen was right here.’

Nishia Thornton was unsure why they were attacked at their home in Chicago Lawn, Illinois, but believed that this was not a robbery
Nelson suffers from pulmonary hypertension and is receiving hospice care. The past summer, she has been in and out of the hospital.
The family spoke to the news in fear that the attackers would come back after police said no one was arrested, said the outlet.
The criminals fled the scene in a dark colored sedan headed northbound on Kedzie toward 72nd Street.
Nelson promised that after living in her home for 30 years she has no plans on leaving now:
‘I’m not going to let them run me out of my house. We’ve never had an incident in the whole 30 years. Never.’
Her daughter added: ‘We’re not the people. I don’t know who they’re looking for. But they’re not here. It’s just us here.’
The victims hope that a red-light camera posted in the direction the escape car went can help them find out who did this to them.
This incident comes about two weeks after President Donald Trump announced on Truth Social:
Thorton expressed concern, stating, “That’s the frightening part. I didn’t initially realize that my mom’s oxygen was positioned right here,” after an explosive nearly landed nearby.

Footage shows the suspects breaking the glass, attacking the door, and damaging the camera, while another suspect seems to be hurling a fire-starting device from the front yard.
‘Chicago about to find out why it’s called the Department of WAR.’
In reaction, the governor of Illinois and the mayor of Chicago issued similar statements, pledging to protect their state and city from tyranny and totalitarian rule.
Mayor Brandon Johnson shared on X: “The President’s threats demean the dignity of our nation, but his true intention is to invade our city and dismantle our Constitution.”
‘We must defend our democracy from this authoritarianism by protecting each other and protecting Chicago from Donald Trump.’
‘We must defend our democracy from this authoritarianism by protecting each other and protecting Chicago from Donald Trump.’
Trump asserted that the National Guard is assisting Democratic cities with crime issues and mentioned that following Washington, D.C., Chicago is next in line, according to the Daily Mail.
The president said at a World Cup Event at the Oval Office: ”When we’re ready, we’ll go in and we’ll straighten out Chicago, just like we did DC.’
He continued, “Chicago is in chaos. The mayor is highly incompetent, and we’ll sort that out next. That will likely be our next target, and it won’t be difficult at all.”
