Overview

• Around 4:30 a.m. Sunday, four masked men forced a kitchen window of a pavillon on Quai de l’Artois and confronted the sleeping homeowner.
• They threatened her with a hammer — and, per one account, a stone — asked about a safe or gold, then scoured the house for roughly 20 minutes.
• The victim was bound and gagged with tape, later freed herself after the intruders fled, called police, and reported no physical injuries though she was in shock.
• The group left with only a few pieces of jewellery, and the victim described them as hurried or agitated.
• The inquiry has been assigned to the Nogent‑sur‑Marne SAIP, and the incident follows multiple similar home‑jackings reported on the same street in recent months.
