The New York Police Department is investigating a violent home invasion that took place in the Highbridge neighborhood of the Bronx late last Thursday. According to official reports, three suspects forced their way into a residence near West 168th Street and Ogden Avenue at approximately 10:15 p.m.

Investigators state that the intruders were armed with knives and a firearm when they entered the home. Once inside, the suspects allegedly assaulted a 39-year-old woman. Reports indicate that the victim was blindfolded and restrained with duct tape during the encounter.

The suspects reportedly fled the scene on foot after seizing a collection of items valued at approximately $343,000, including cash, jewelry, perfumes, and a mobile phone.

Emergency responders transported the victim to NYC Health + Hospitals/Lincoln following the incident. As of the latest updates from authorities, she remains in stable condition.

Police have released surveillance imagery of the individuals believed to be involved in the robbery. The investigation is ongoing, and officials have not yet disclosed whether the residence was specifically targeted or if the suspects had any prior connection to the victim. Anyone with information regarding the identity or whereabouts of the suspects is encouraged to contact local law enforcement.
