According to police, on July 23, just after 1 a.m., the two suspects rang the doorbell at a home on Woodhaven Boulevard and Doran Avenue and identified themselves to the 27-year-old victim as police officers and said they were looking for her boyfriend.

They proceeded to kick open the door and handcuff the woman before removing around $10,000 from the house and fleeing in a dark-colored Ford Mustang, police said.

Cops said no injuries were reported.

Anyone with information in regard to this incident is asked to call the NYPD's Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS.
