Man tied up and stabbed to death in NYC home invasion

And though there was a witness who saw the face of at least one of the two assaillants, the New York Post provides no description of the killers:

Queens man bound, fatally stabbed during home invasion

A 32-year-old Queens man was bound and fatally stabbed during a home invasion by two armed thugs this morning while his mom was in the house, police said.

The mother of the victim, Thomas Shanis, managed to call 911 and report that her son had been tied up with tape and stabbed.

She told police the two suspects were armed with knives and guns, and one was wearing a ski mask.

Her son owed the men money, she said.

The mother was not injured in the 10 a.m. attack.

No arrests have been made.

It’s not clear if anything was taken.

If Shanis’s mother knew that one of the men was wearing a ski mask and that the other man wasn’t, then she saw the face of the other man. Yet the Post doesn’t say what either man looked like.
