North Providence police report that at approximately 6:20 pm on Saturday evening, four to five black males wearing face coverings, armed with black handguns with extended magazines, broke through the front door of 30 Wentworth Street.

The men then held three occupants at gunpoint. The suspects stole approximately $3,000.00 dollars in cash and possibly drugs at the home, according to North Providence Police Chief Alfredo Ruggiero.

The three adult victims, a male and two females that were inside of the residence, were not harmed.  At this time, they are not being cooperative and requesting that police vacate their home.
