ORANGE COUNTY, FL – An Orange County jury found two men, Broderick Thomas, 36, and Davonte McRae, 27, guilty of several charges after they invaded a family’s home and held five innocent people at gunpoint. They were convicted on two counts of Home Invasion Robbery, three counts of Burglary of a Dwelling with Assault/Battery with a Firearm, one count of Attempted Felony Murder (McRae only) and one count of Aggravated Battery (Great Bodily Harm with a Firearm) (McRae only).

On September 15, 2021, Thomas and McRae, forcefully entered a home in the Pine Hills neighborhood armed with firearms, intent on finding money and marijuana. Once inside, they forced all occupants into the kitchen and repeatedly demanded the whereabouts of guns or cash while threatening them with their firearms. They also threatened to kill one female victim and her ninth-month-old baby who was also at the home.
