Nassau County police are investigating an armed home invasion in Elmont during which three victims were assaulted over the weekend, authorities said.
Three women, ages 17, 35 and 45, were awakened by up to five men demanding cash while armed with handguns and a stun gun at the victims’ Leighton Road home at 3:11 a.m. Sunday, police said.
The older two women were pistol-whipped in the head and the teenager was struck on the arm with a stun gun, police said. The victims were put in a bathroom while the assailants ransacked the house, police said.
The 35-year-old victim was treated for her injuries at a local hospital and released, but the other two refused medical attention.

The second suspect was described as 5-feet, 8-inches tall with a goatee, a Mohawk, and was wearing a white or light grey baseball cap and blue/black trim Michael Jordan sneakers.
The third suspect was described as 5-feet, 5-inches tall with a stocky built, wide brown eyes and wearing shiny earrings. The fourth suspect was described as 5-feet, 6-inches tall with a thin build and wearing dark clothes with a hood.
