East Massapequa Man Tied up and Robbed in his Home

Robbers tied up and beat a man inside his East Massapequa home early Monday, before they were arrested, police said.

The incident happened at 12:17 a.m. as Louis Hines, 24, and Dashawn Combs, 25, of Copiague and Herman Monroe of Amityville allegedly entered the Francine Avenue home through an unlocked rear door.

The 22-year-old victim was home alone and the three men tied him up and struck him in the head and face, cops said.

The robbers took two flat screen TVs, jewelry, two iPhones, car keys and an unknown amount of cash, before fleeing the scene in the victim's 2010 Nissan.

Suffolk County Police spotted the suspects on Miller Avenue in Amityville a short time later and found the car nearby, police said.

The other proceeds from the robbery weren't found, police said.

The three men were charged with robbery, burglary, and unlawful imprisonment, police said.
