Six Arrested in Woodbury House Robbery

Police have arrested six NYC men in connection to an armed robbery of a Woodbury home on Friday at around 1:30 p.m.

Michael Mohammed, 23, of Flatbush, Randolph Chase, 31, of Brooklyn, Glen Campbell, 32, of Richmond Hill, Goutam Persaud 24, of Jamaica, Aadam Yusuf 29, of S. Ozone Park and Jose Fuertes, 27, of Brooklyn, were all arrested and charged with Robbery 1st Degree, Burglary 1st Degree, Criminal Use of a Firearm 1st Degree and Conspiracy 4th Degree.

According to detectives, at 1:19 p.m. on Friday a 26-year-old female resident of a Woodbury home answered the doorbell to see a man holding a bouquet of flowers. When the woman opened the door, police said the subject pointed a handgun at her and forced her to lie on the floor of the hallway, and three other male subjects, one armed with a handgun and one with a taser, exited a nearby van and entered the home.

Police said that one subject demanded money and jewelry from a 61-year-old woman in the house, and the woman was lead to an upstairs bedroom where she was duct taped around her wrists and ankles. While this was happening, police said an 18-year-old female in the house locked herself inside a bathroom and called 911 on her cell phone. 

Police said the victims were not injured and most of the stolen goods were recovered. All six defendants are scheduled to be arraigned Sunday in First District Court in Hempstead.
