Surveillance Images Released of Suspects in Fake Delivery Home Invasion in Queens

QUEENS, N.Y. — Police have released surveillance images of several individuals wanted in connection with a violent home invasion in Queens, where suspects posed as delivery workers to gain access to a private residence.

The incident occurred when a suspect carrying a package knocked on the victim's door. Once the homeowner opened the door, multiple armed individuals forced their way inside the residence. The victims were bound and threatened while the intruders ransacked the home, fleeing shortly after with cash, jewelry, and electronics.

Authorities are using this incident to warn residents about the dangers of opening doors for unexpected deliveries. Law enforcement officials recommend verifying delivery details through peepholes or smart doorbells and requesting identification before opening the door to strangers.
