Gunmen Tape Up Man's Hands, Rob Him In Queens: NYPD

QUEENS, NY — A trio of armed robbers taped a Queens man's hands together after they forced him into his home, police said.

The harrowing Jan. 24 robbery unfolded as a 36-year-old man walked up to his Kew Garden Hills home about 11:30 p.m., NYPD officials said.

But right before the man could enter his home, three men drew guns on him, authorities said.

The trio forced the man into his home — which is near 78th Avenue and Parsons Boulevard — and bound his hands with tape, police said.

They then took his wallet with credit cards and roughly $300 inside before running off into a gray four-door sedan, authorities said.

The sedan was last seen headed west on 78th Avenue, officials said.

Police released photographs over the weekend that they said showed the three suspects.
