It was an armed home-invasion robbery where the three suspects ended up stealing a gold iPhone from a 13-year-old.
Now, Nassau County police are asking the public’s help in identifying the men who broke into a home in Elmont on Nov. 15 — and they’re asking anyone with information to call Crime Stoppers at 800-244-8477. All calls will remain confidential.
Police said the robbery at the home on Louis Avenue occurred at about 9:30 p.m.
The suspects, two of whom were caught on video surveillance, entered through an unlocked side door wearing ski masks and gloves. Once inside, they went to a second-floor apartment, brandished black handguns and demanded cash. Police said, however, the occupants said they had no money. So, one of the suspects then ordered a 13-year-old to the floor and stole her phone.
The men then fled south on Louis.
