HORROR: 13-Year-Old Boy Tied Up And Forced To Watch His Father Die (PHOTOS)
It has been revealed how a 13-year-old boy, George Dart watched his British father, Edgar Dart, bleed to death during an armed raid on their luxury family home in the Bahamas.
It was gathered that Edgar, 56, was gunned down in front of his family when he tried to remonstrate with three masked and gun-toting intruders.
According to reports, the gang were threatening his teenage son George and five relatives after bursting into the sprawling property at 7am on Tuesday.
As Mr Dart lay dying on the floor, the killers tied the rest of the family up and ransacked the house before fleeing with cash and jewellery.

Mr Dart’s brother-in-law Philip Poole said his own son, Pip, 29, was also attacked and suffered machete wounds.
He added: "Edgar was a tough guy and as soon as the men burst into the house he remonstrated with them. One of the raiders then shot him in the chest.
"The gang then tied everyone up, including his mother Joy and George. I have been told they were forced to look on helplessly as Edgar lay on the floor bleeding to death in front of them.

"It took him around an hour to die and there was just nothing they could do for him.
"The gang simply ransacked the house taking money and jewellery and then left. We just cannot believe what has happened.
"It is so difficult being so many miles away when family members have been involved in something as horrific as this."
Crime has become a problem for the authorities on Grand Bahama, and eight murders have been recorded this year.

Two months ago the US embassy warned that ‘a number of US citizens had fallen victim to armed robbery and two had been murdered in the last eight months’.
Speaking on the tragic incident, a Foreign Office spokesman said: "We are aware of the death of a British national in the Bahamas and we are providing consular assistance."
