Masked bandits tie up two women, steal over $1M in Queens home invasion robbery

QUEENS, N.Y. — The NYPD is seeking the public’s help in identifying six individuals wanted in connection to a high-value robbery that took place last Wednesday in Richmond Hill, where more than $1 million in luxury goods were stolen during a violent home invasion.

According to police, five suspects forced their way into a residence near Mayfair Road and 116th Street at approximately 7:36 p.m., where they assaulted and restrained two women before ransacking the property.

Key Points:

  • Five suspects restrained two women and stole over $1 million in valuables.
  • The group fled in a white 2021 Toyota RAV4 driven by a sixth accomplice.
  • No injuries were reported, and NYPD released surveillance media of the suspects.

Authorities said the crew pushed a 53-year-old woman to the ground and bound both her and a 36-year-old woman with tape. The suspects then looted the home, taking jewelry, designer purses, clothing, and other items totaling approximately $1,105,000 in value.
