Granny begs for 5-year-old’s life in terrifying NYC home invasion that netted thieves $15K in valuables: ‘Please don’t kill him!’

A Harlem granny was forced to beg for the life of her 5-year-old grandson when a pair of brazen thugs burst into her home guns blazing — making off with $15,000 in cash and jewelry early Wednesday.

The heartless crooks pistol-whipped 56-year-old grandma Yudelka Nunez before swiping the family’s valuables and slapping the helpless boy on the way out, she told The Post.

“They accosted my grandson right in front of me and I started screaming,” Nunez said through tears inside the ransacked Manhattan Avenue apartment.

“They threw him on the floor and made him lie face down under the bed,” she said. “That’s when I threw myself on top of him. I was screaming, ‘Please don’t kill him! I don’t want you to kill anyone, but if you are, kill me!'”

The callous ski-mask-wearing duo showed up at the apartment building near 118th Street around 1:20 a.m. and rang the doorbell, cops said.

A 5-year-old boy – who was at home with Nunez – answered the door, thinking his mom had come home, law enforcement sources said.

Instead, the boy and his grandma came face-to-face with the armed pair, who demanded, “Where is the safe?” sources said.

Nunez said she wasn’t aware her daughter wasn’t home, and assumed that the knock on the door was her boyfriend.

“I was so sure it was him,” Nunez said. “I was so sure my daughter was home and it was him. But it wasn’t.”

The pair swooped up the safe – holding $4,500 in cash – plus $10,000 in jewelry, as well as cellphones and three passports, the sources said.

The suspects – believed to be Hispanic men between 20 and 30 years old, both wearing all black – fled on foot, cops and sources said.

Both the boy and his grandmother were hospitalized for an evaluation, cops said.

A delivery worker managed to recover the stolen phones and passports about a block away, sources said.

No arrests had been made by later Wednesday.

Meanwhile, Nunez said she’s angry with her daughter.

“I’m done with her,” she said. “I don’t know where I’m going to go but I can’t say here. I can’t put my grandson in more danger.”
