Residents in a Whittier neighborhood are on high alert after three men posed as gas company workers to try to get into a home.

The incident happened Friday around 7 p.m. in the 8100 block of Bradwell Avenue in an unincorporated part of Whittier.

Their ploy didn't appear to work. The residents of the home refused to let them in and closed the door. Suddenly, the suspects turn around and sprint back toward the home, trying to make their way in. The suspect seen wearing a gray hoodie appears to pull a gun from his waistband.No shots were fired and no injuries were reported, but the terrifying incident has shaken the normally quiet neighborhood, including those who were too nervous to speak on camera.

Joann Villanueva, who lives in the same neighborhood, was left wondering about a man who randomly knocked on her door last week.
