A family in Woodmere was robbed at gunpoint as they were walking into their home early Monday morning, and Police are looking for the suspects.
Nassau County Police tell YWN that four victims had just parked their car in the driveway of their home, and began walking towards their home.
Suddenly, two men ran towards them yelling at them to get on the ground , as one pointed a gun at them.
The suspects took money and jewelry from the victims, then got into a dark colored sedan and fled the scene in an unknown direction.
Thankfully, the victims were not injured.
The first suspect is described as a male black, approximately 5’8” tall, 230 pounds, black braids, wearing a blue shirt with white denim jeans. The second suspect is described as a male black, 5’11” tall, thin build, short black hair, wearing a black shirt and dark colored pants. The victims were not injured and the investigation is ongoing.
Detectives request anyone with information regarding this crime to contact Nassau County Crime Stoppers at 1-800-244-TIPS. All callers will remain anonymous.

I guess it’s time for every Jew a 22 again
In 5-Towns, this makes news. In Brooklyn, it happens all the time.
Lol, not in NY buddy. Bet the SAFE act makes them feel real safe. But keep voting in state and local level gun grabbers. Don’t worry. Those of us in free states will save you when history inevitably repeats itself.
The report that I said it was in North Woodmere not Woodmere. There is a difference. Does anyone know exactly where this incident took place?
The incident occurred in Valley Stream. For the benefit of the uneducated Brooklyn crowd who consider anything outside of a 1 mile radius of Ocean Parkway “chutz la’aretz”, Valley Stream is not in the 5towns. Valley Stream was renamed “North Woodmere” by Jews who moved in there and wanted to feel like they lived in the 5towns without having to pay high 5towns prices on their homes. Once too many Jews moved into Valley Stream the home prices went up. Now I’m not sure why people still buy there.
News stories say north woodmere. Obviously a little more crime prone but still fairly rare in the 80’s and 90’s.
JY, you’re incorrect in stating that Valley Stream was renamed North Woodmere. North Woodmere is one small section of Valley Stream. The name seems to have some kind of official imprimatur, unlike Far Rockaway’s “West Lawrence.” It also seems to date back to at least the 1960’s, long before the area became heavily frum.
Reb Yehudayona,
While I’m not a historian, I can report that when questioned, I’ve never heard a goy say he lived in North Woodmere. And I never heard a Jew say he lived in Valley Stream.
The first suspect is described as a male black, approximately 5’8” tall, 230 pounds, black braids, wearing a blue shirt with white denim jeans. The second suspect is described as a male black, 5’11” tall, thin build, short black hair, wearing a black shirt and dark colored pants.
Lol, good luck narrowing down the suspect list while looking for a black guy in braids and a black guy in a T shirt.
