Four people were charged with assault, robbery and other charges for attacking a woman last Saturday in Elmont.

Officers responded to a Gotham Avenue address at 4:18 a.m., where they discovered a female victim, 29, bound with duct tape and wires inside a home. The officers detained four suspects at the scene.

Police said the suspects had punched, kicked and sprayed the victim with mace, and took her cell phone, credit card and driver’s license. She was transported to a local hospital.

Those charged were Alicia Campbell, 27, of Rosedale, Brian I. Virola, 23, of Port Chester, Elizabeth Hogg, 22, of Gotham Avenue in Elmont, and Farianny Geraldino, 22, of the Bronx.

All four were charged with second-degree robbery, two counts of second-degree assault, second-degree strangulation, second-degree unlawful imprisonment and third-degree criminal possession of a weapon. They were arraigned at First District Court in Hempstead.
