The teen was home alone when he heard a door open, according to police.

Thinking a family member had returned home, officers said the boy walked toward the kitchen where he confronted two males, both wearing face masks.

The duo — described to police as one wearing a white hoodie and red pants and the other a black hoodie with black pants — ran when the teen appeared.
