Nine masked intruders forced entry into a Flushing home on 147th Place by smashing a window with a hammer close to 1 a.m. Sunday, per the NYPD, according to the New York Post

Inside, the group assaulted m a 37-year-old man, hitting him and stabbing his back, police reported. They grabbed jewelry and clothes before escaping in a gray Toyota Sienna. The victim was taken to New York-Presbyterian Queens Hospital, where he is luckily stable. A video showcases the young squad on the home’s steps, one holding a hammer while another had a knife, The Post reported. 

Their initial burglary occurred just hours into 2025, targeting another residence on the same street around 3 a.m. on New Year’s Day, according to officials. They entered by breaking a living room window, stealing about $25,000 and a bracelet, and then evaded in a gray car. No injuries were reported. Officials are still seeking assistance in locating the baby-faced suspects.
