June 14, 2007 (Syracuse, NY) – Five people were held at gunpoint Wednesday in a Syracuse home invasion robbery on West Onondaga Street, city police said.
David Green, 41, told police he had just returned from a store about 12:05 a.m. when six or seven men followed him into his home.
All the men carried handguns, Green told police. Green said he was handcuffed to a bed, continually asked where the money was and struck with a gun. Green was treated for a small cut above his eye, police said.
The men were dressed in black pants and T-shirts and wore masks, police said.
Demeress Busby, 41, Green's fiancee, was in the home, as well as a 14-year-old girl and two 18-year-old men, police said. All were threatened but none was hurt, police said.
Busby told police a knife was held to her throat as she was asked about money.
The men herded everyone into a bathroom and told them not to come out, police said. The men stole items from the home before leaving.
