Armed Air Force personnel burst into the wrong home and “confronted” a child alone inside.

Doorbell footage shows the moment at least two airmen stormed the property on Joint Base Andrews, Maryland with their service pistols drawn.

The video was shared to an unofficial Facebook page dedicated to the US military by a user who claimed that they were the mother of the child who was inside the property. The poster alleged that the officers confronted her son with weapons and strip searched him before saying they had the “wrong house” and left.

A Joint Base Andrews spokesperson told The Independent: “The actions of those involved are being addressed while the matter is under review. No additional details are available at this time.”
