Masked Robbers Storm Queen’s Park Autumn Garden Residence, Bind Two Women and Rob Million-Dollar Items

The New York City Police Department stated that a residence in Kew Gardens, Queens, was robbed by five assailants last Wednesday night. Two women were bound during the incident, and the total value of the items stolen on the scene exceeded $1.1 million. Law enforcement is currently pursuing suspects and has released images to seek information from the public to solve the case.

According to information provided by the NYPD, the incident occurred around 7:36 p.m. on March 19 in a leafy residential area at the intersection of Mayfair Road and 116th Street in the Kew Gardens community.

The police reported that the five assailants forcibly entered the residence and pushed down two women, aged 53 and 36, respectively, and bound them with tape. A law enforcement source revealed to the New York Post that one of the victims, a 53-year-old nanny, had just put the children to bed and had gone outside to take out the trash when she noticed five men getting out of a white car. She immediately rushed back inside to try to close the door, but the suspects swiftly caught up and forced their way into the house.

The source indicated that one of the suspects pushed the nanny down and pinned her to the ground while the others entered the house and similarly bound the other 36-year-old woman inside with tape. Both women were restricted in their movements inside the house, but there were no reports of physical injuries.

The suspects then ransacked the house for jewelry, handbags, clothing, and other valuables, estimated to be worth around $1,105,000. The police mentioned that besides the five assailants, there was also an additional person staying outside as the getaway driver. The group ultimately fled the scene in a white 2021 Toyota RAV4, and their whereabouts are currently unknown.

This incident took place in a relatively quiet residential street in the city, sparking concerns in the community regarding nighttime security. The police stated that it is still unclear whether the suspects planned the robbery in advance or if they have any connection to the victimized family, and investigations are ongoing.
