Everyone please be careful - robbery in Garden City
Here is the article - and they REALLY played down what happened but thank god they caught these creeps.
A family friend was held at gunpoint 10 houses away from her home in Garden City (she was walking home from the train that night - they live two blocks from the station)
The gun turned out to be a pellet gun but the poor girl had no idea - she broke free from them after they robber her and ran for her life.
This is just a reminder that terrible things can happen anywhere at anytime. I am just distraught over this for their poor family - thank god nothing happened!!!

5 charged in Nassau robbery spree with 5 victims Play the video (05/11/08) HEMPSTEAD - Five young people from Elmont are accused of going on a 12-hour robbery crime spree. The suspects, two boys and three girls, allegedly started Friday night in Valley Stream on West Valley Stream Boulevard, where they stole a man's bag and cell phone.
The group next allegedly stole a woman's cell phone and camera in Garden City. Police say the suspects then robbed a man on Merrick Road in Valley Stream and a woman on Kingston Street in Elmont.
The group then allegedly took a man's wallet on the Hempstead Turnpike in Elmont near a Dunkin' Donuts/Baskin Robbins.
Authorities say a description of the Nissan the suspects were driving led to their arrests in Elmont. Officers say they found a BB gun, pellet gun and stun gun in the vehicle.
Francis Metellus, Kemar Moore, Melissa Joseph, Tiffany DeWalker and Monique White are charged with robbery. Metellus is also charged with criminal mischief for allegedly kicking out the back window of a police car during his arrest.
The suspects pleaded not guilty at their arraignment.
