BRONX - Some folks no longer trust banks, but one woman in Morrisania must be wishing she had-- as police are looking to identify two individuals who forced their way into an apartment brandishing weapons and walking out with a safe containing $160,000.




 

Officers from the 42nd Precinct responded to the armed home invasion inside the 5-story building at 547 East 168 Street at 10 p.m. on March 23.




 

One police source stated, "Two unidentified individuals forcibly entered an apartment. One of the individuals displayed a firearm. The other individual displayed a cutting instrument and stabbed the 30-year-old female victim in the left arm causing a laceration. The individuals then removed a cellphone and a safe containing approximately $160,000 dollars before fleeing in an unknown direction."




 

The unidentified victim was transported to St. Barnabas Hospital and at the time was reported in "stable" condition.

 

One resident of the building told the Bronx Voice, "I mean I did hear about it, but it's not my business." The resident added she believed the female victim lived on the first floor. The resident was then asked if the woman was injured, she replied, "I don't know, that's her business."

 

An attempt was made to reach the building's managing agent Genesis Realty Group, LLC., located on Third Avenue, but was unsuccessful.




 

The NYPD released several photos of what appeared to be two male suspects. One appeared to be a dark-skinned male wearing an orange baseball cap and a blue or black sweater with white lettering and sneakers. The second suspect appeared to be a male, dressed in all black, wearing jeans, a sweatshirt and ski-mask and sneakers.

 

This suspect's sweatshirt also had white markings on the front and ironically, had "A Kodak Moment" written in orange on the back.




 

Anyone with any information regarding this incident is urged to call the Crime Stoppers at 1 (800) 577-TIPS or by logging onto the Crime Stoppers website at www.NYPDCRIMESTOPPERS.com, all calls remain confidential.
