NEW YORK (1010 WINS) -- The NYPD on Wednesday released surveillance video and photos of four thieves who stole $10,000 in cash and belongings during an Upper East Side home invasion.

Once they were in the lobby, the masked men pulled out guns and demanded the 68-year-old hand over his valuables, police said.
The four thieves forced the man and the building's 67-year-old doorman into the elevator, then rode up to the man's apartment, the NYPD said.
Inside the apartment, the thieves tied up the resident and his doorman before stealing $10,000 in cash, jewelry and rare coins, according to police and a New York Post report.
The thieves fled the scene in a minivan, the NYPD said. The department said no one was injured during the home invasion, but the Post reported that at least one of the thieves beat up the doorman.
The four thieves hadn't been arrested as of Wednesday evening, police said. An investigation is ongoing.
