Three Cedarhurst men arrested for alleged assault and robbery incident
Daniel Avital, 36, Dov Avital, 31, and Jacob Avital, 40, of 542 Redwood Dr. in Cedarhurst were arrested for alleged assault and robbery among other charges on Sept. 11.
The victim, a 31-year-old man, called Five Towns Jewelry Buyers, at 589 Willow Ave., attempting to sell a bracelet, but was instructed to go to 542 Redwood Dr., due to the store being under renovation, detectives from the Nassau County Police Department said in a news release.
When the man arrived at the Willow Avenue address, he was allegedly forcibly grabbed and dragged into the home, beat, using a baseball bat and threatened with a sledgehammer by the alleged defendants. The three also allegedly stole the man's iPhone, bracelet and drivers license, then fled the scene, the NCPD said.
Officers later arrested the alleged defendants without incident and they are facing assault, criminal possession of a weapon, robbery and unlawful imprisonment charges and will be arraigned on Sept. 12 at Nassau County First District Court.
