Before he could chamber another round, five unmarked black tactical vehicles smashed through the wooden privacy fence simultaneously.
Wood splintered and flew through the air as the heavy armored trucks completely surrounded the patio.
Dozens of heavily armed FBI agents swarmed the backyard, their red laser sights locking squarely onto my brother's head and chest.
