BEDFORD-STUYVESANT — Thieves broke into a Bed-Stuy apartment and forced a 41-year-old resident to hand over cash, police said.

The suspects, two men and a woman, entered the building on Willoughby Avenue around 12:15 a.m. on July 30, officials said.

The group, armed with a gun, forced their way inside an apartment and demanded money from the victim.

The victim complied and the thieves fled the scene with $300, an NYPD spokesman said. No injuries were reported.

Police released surveillance video of the suspects on Saturday showing one man bringing a bicycle into the building lobby and elevator.

Anyone with information about the incident is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477).
