QUEENS - Home invaders bound and robbed a man in his own home across the street from a Yeshiva, the NYPD said. 

At around 11:30 pm on January 24, a 36-year-old man was about to enter his home in the vicinity of  78 Avenue and Parsons Boulevard. Three men ran up behind him and displayed handguns. They pushed the victim inside and taped up his hands, cops said. The crew then removed the man’s wallet before leaving the home and hopping into a gray four-door sedan. 

Cops said the victim’s wallet contained credits cards and $300 in cash.
