Halloween is over but it left a bad taste in the mouths of some homeowners. Caught on camera — parents steal and destroy for candy and leave a mess behind at a Clovis home.

At first glance, surveillance video shows what looks like the average scene of a Halloween themed front porch. Justin Tiso and his family were out for the festivities so he left a generous bowl of candy.

“And my wife put a nice note on there that said please take one. We’re watching you with a little set of eyes,” said Tiso.

But when you watch the grown-ups, their manners aren’t sweet at all.

“Candy spills out all over the ground. They’re pulling it off the ground,” said Tiso.

The group rushed the porch and snatched all the candy they possibly can. One of the women empties the bowl into her jacket. Not a good example for the kids — most would agree and a closer look at a boy next to the bush shows him casually yanking off a skeleton ornament.

“Right here, rips it off the bush,” said Tiso.

Tiso says according to the footage, this was the first group of trick or treaters at his door leaving his Halloween domain ransacked.

“I’ve related it to almost like savage like behavior. I mean it was like they hadn’t eaten for days and this was the first meal for them,” said Tiso.

Tiso shared the video on Facebook. It’s been watched nearly 50,000 times and has 900 shares.

“Where’s the limit go? If these parents are able to act and teach these lessons to these kids on this small scale, what’s the bigger lesson? What are the other things that is being taught or not being taught?,” asked Tiso.

For Tiso, it’s not the money spent but the principle and almost wishes it were troublesome teens disrespecting his property.

“Not a grown adult and shoving their own children or whoever’s children they were, out of the way and acting like that,” said Tiso.
