Police seek 4 suspects in armed robbery who beat woman, child on Staten Island

MANOR HEIGHTS, Staten island (WABC) — Police are investigating an armed robbery on Staten Island that ended with a family being attacked.

Officials say suspects broke into a home on Livingston Avenue and Queen Street just before 1 a.m. Tuesday.

Surveillance video shows four people entering the home one by one, three of them armed with guns.

Authorities say they got into the home by kicking in a door. One of the suspects looks through a drawer while two others walk down the hallway and enter different rooms.

A 33-year-old woman, 5-year-old girl, 4-year-old boy, and a 54-year-old were home during the robbery, police said.

Lindsay Tuchman reports from the Bronx on residents who want the building owner held accountable after the collapse.

Officials say the suspects demanded money and jewelry before they pistol-whipped the woman and little girl. The suspects took a cell phone and fled the scene.

The two victims were taken to a local hospital to be treated for cuts.
