Police said the two, aware the family had a 7-year-old foster daughter, said they were from the city’s Administration for Children’s Services when they knocked on the apartment door in a building on East Mosholu Parkway North in the early evening of May 5.
Once inside, they robbed a 61-year-old man and 44-year-old woman at gunpoint.
Cops released a lobby camera video of the robbers yesterday hoping to catch them.
One suspect was described as black, about 50, 5-feet-8 to 5-feet-9, with a thin build and salt-and-pepper hair. The other is a black man in his 40s, 5-feet-7 to 5-feet-8, bald, with a stocky build and last seen wearing a white shirt.
Anyone with information is asked to call the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers hotline at (800) 577-TIPS or go to nypdcrimestoppers.com.
