A burglar strikes a North Lubbock home and leaves a family 'without' this Christmas.
Delia Berrera says she left her house around noon Wednesday.
When she returned at 6:00 p.m., her house had been burglarized.
Thieves apparently broke in through a back window and they got away with an estimated $10,000 worth of Christmas gifts and household items.
Delia says she had gifts under the tree for her 17 Grandchildren, one Great-Grandchild and her five children.
Two plasma televisions, jewlery and a VCR were also taken from the home.
Delia says she has no idea who would have done this so close to Christmas.
"The stuff that I bought for my Grandchildren, I can't replace it. We work, we're working people, that's how we do our living so I don't have any way to replace it," she says.
Delia says the only thing thieves didn't take were two new bicycles.
