A third suspect has been arrested in the Winter Garden home invasion.

A charging affidavit in the case shows that the victims in this case were terrorized for two days.

The trouble began for this Winter Garden couple and their five-year-old son Sunday morning when four armed people stormed their home in the gated Lake Roberts community and took them captive.

Rubens Morais, his wife, Marcela Borges, and their son, Ryan, were tied up and blindfolded.

That night the family was held in Apopka.

The next day they were taken back to their home and Borges was forced to withdraw $23,600 from the family's account.

On Tuesday, Borges was able to take off her blindfold and removed the mask from one of their captors. The woman reportedly said, "She saw my face and knows who I am. You have to kill her!"

Borges then jumped from a second-floor window to escape. She was shot as she ran to a neighbor's.

"The suspects did know detailed information about the victims, their business, that there would be money and who they were, and where their house was," said Lt. Keith Ralston to Channel 9 Eyewitness News.

Miguel Diaz Santiz (left above) and Victor Manuel Sanchez were arrested for the crime Tuesday. A third suspect, Oscar Diaz Hernandez, was taken into custody Wednesday. The search continues for the female suspect.

Borges is expected to recover from her injuries.

Santiz and Sanchez have reportedly confessed to their role in the crime. The Orange County Jail is looking into whether the two are are in the United State legally.

  • SAVAGE NATION RULES
    Completely agree....I IMMEDIATELY turn off 580 when I hear the damn Magic. Savage is brilliant.
    I highly doubt that the Magic get better ratings than Savage. WDBO -- you guys are GREAT, but please hear this cry!!!
  • Obama's agenda
    These are the people that Obama loves and wants to flood our country with. They are our future "voting booth" enforcers.
  • Savage Nation
    Can someone tell me why WDBO airs basketball games over the Savage Nation?
  • Illegals aliens?
    95% of warrents for murder in LA are for illegal aliens. 75% of people on the most wanted list in LA are illegal aliens. Who are these guys and why dosen't the press report their legal status?
  • just shoot them. it's cheaper.
  • Yes, Obama is Evil!
    You're absolutely right. They are on the attack. And why? Precisely because of the reasons outlined in a brilliant column I just read at BadEagle.com. The Palin Plethora. It's a must read:

    THE PALIN PLETHORA
    By David Yeagley
    In the media plethora of Sarah Palin, we may miss the most important ’shout out’ of her message: the failure of white men.

    The media has absorbed the Sarah Palin image with a ‘roguish’ rigour, indeed, but this is not a special feat, since she lends herself so well to the utmost attention of all. Democrats believe that she will divide the Republicans so abjectly that the Democrats can easily win whatever election she campaigns for, hers or anyone she supports. Therefore the liberal media gives Sarah 24/7 coverage. They made “Obama,” so they figure they can break the Republicans with Palin. Republicans are thrilled that she is a grass roots, frontier women, not another crooked politician, not seasoned in fraud and double talk.
    Everyone delights to look at her. That’s the one unifying factor. (FoxNews is even happy to have its errors in reporting about her dramatized!) She’s one fine looking woman. And she has a fine, tempered steel strength, like all beauty pageant girls. She’s known how to take hits since she was very young. She will never crumble under pressure. (She may resign when wise, appropriate, and necessary to do so for the benefit of all parties concerned, as she explains in her book, Going Rogue. But that isn’t buckling, at all.) Take Carrie Prejean, for another, younger example. She has a new book out, too, defending herself. There is no silencing or intimidating a pageant queen. Most people have no idea about that pageant personality. No one should be particularly impressed with Palin’s public behavior. She thrives on productivity and aggression.

    But that so many men would look to a woman for a triumph is the loudest element in the Palin story. It just means that American men have resigned. It is yet another sign that American men have abdicated their responsibilities in true, patriotic, American leadership. They want someone to stump for them, to pinch hit for them. This is a national shame, really.

    A nation is never conquered until the hearts of its women are on the ground, as the Cheyenne proverb says....
  • Obama Is Evil
    The America you grew up in is dead. The faces of darkness that now pervade our land have hearts of evil. In their mind, you are weak, they are strong. They will steal, plunder and murder. The next target could very well be you. Welcome to your new reality, America.
  • Costs to the taxpayers
    So we are going to have to pay hundreds of thousands of dollars to incarcerate these villains, who are probably here illegally too. They are certainly doing jobs that Americans don't want to do.
