Two women managed to fight off four would-be home invaders who knocked on their Manhattan apartment door around dinnertime one day last month and tried to force their way in, police say.
Surveillance video shows the four suspects walk into the building on West 131st Street and Frederick Douglass Boulevard around 7 p.m. on Sunday, Oct. 14. They head down a hallway in single file.
The women pushed the door against him to keep him out, but he whipped out an air pistol and fired one shot at the 23-year-old woman, striking her on the elbow. The 25-year-old woman then sprayed him in the face with an unknown chemical substance; he backed out of the doorway and the victims slammed the door.

A Lincoln Park woman was followed into her home and robbed of several hundred dollars Friday evening, police said. The victim told police that she entered her building in the 500 block of West Belden around 10:50 p.m. and was followed by a man who proceeded to rob her.
The offender fled with the victim’s purse, wallet, and about $900 in cash.
Police described the robber as male, black, about 40-years-old, and 6’1” tall with two crooked eyes. He was wearing a black winter cap and a black parka. He was last seen heading west on Belden.
