A gun-toting grandmother allegedly shot two suspected intruders dead at her home

Carlota Alfaro is accused of opening fire on a family after getting out of a car with two other suspects – named only as Eduardo and Mariana.

An elderly woman and a man were seen both armed with guns, with harrowing footage of the attack filmed by an onlooker.

A family was gathered outside of a property as the pair approached them.

The man went inside the home as an OAP woman aimed her gun at another man and blasted him twice.

According to police, a row started because some people invaded her property.

The trio had pulled up at the house with the hope that they could claim back the property, it is reported.

After the first man was shot, the woman filming began screaming at the elderly woman and said: “He gave it to my father-in-law.”

In the video, a 19-year-old wearing red shorts ran over to the man who had been injured.

She then viciously shot the young man in the head, killing him on the spot, as reported by Need To Know.

The man who was shot initially started to fight the OAP woman as the woman filming became hysterical.

Other family members started to fight the two female suspects when suddenly several more gunshots were heard.

The faint sound of sirens presumed to me from the emergency services can be heard in the background of the footage.

The trio got back inside the grey vehicle and drove away.

As well as the 19-year-old, a 51-year-old man was also killed and a 14-year-old was injured.

Authorities were able to arrest Carlota, Eduardo and Mariana on the day of the attack.
