NEW ROCHELLE, N.Y. — Police are investigating a violent home invasion robbery that left a 25-year-old man injured and stripped of $75,000 in jewelry in the early hours of Saturday morning.
The incident occurred around 1:25 a.m. on July 12, when the victim returned to his residence on Kewanee Road. He was immediately confronted by two masked suspects armed with semi-automatic handguns, the New Rochelle Police Department said.
