Just a random house at 2:30 in the morning huh, sorry not buying it.
This is just the beginning of things to come.
People need to place a floor mounted wedge in the center of the door or install a deadbolt lock up high with a 2 inch throw bolt, both will prevent the door from being kicked in. And, this will give you just enough time to get your backup and even out the odds.
