The four masked thieves pistol-whipped one man, threatened to kill an' infant girl and stuffed an empty bottle into another baby's mouth to keep her from crying. But the families that endured yesterday's nightmare on Hoover Briarwood, were lucky when the gang's members robbed the Flushing home of a Chinese businessman May 16, they sexually assaulted two people.

And when they first struck May 12, they tied up the members of another Flushing Chinese family including a 4-year-old with wire and tape. "At this time it looks like part of a pattern," police spokesman Sgt. Sean Crowley said after yesterday's robbery. In all three cases, the gunmen wore masks, spoke Spanish with one another, carried a police scanner and pulled off their robberies with near-military precision, police sources said. One of yesterday's victims, 45-year-old Abdul Awan, said the bandits somehow knew he had taken $10,000 home from the drugstore he owns nearby.

Police said the bandits took $2,000 in cash, about $1,500 worth of jewelry and two video cameras from the Shankar family.

Then, police said, two of the intruders took Shankar's 9-year-old daughter, Vineeta, down to the basement and forced her to knock on her uncle Mahander Ochani's door. "They told her to tell him your dad is sick," said Shankar. While they tied up the uncle, the two other robbers forced their way into Nana Panjwan's first-floor apartment. One of them hit Panj-wan in the head with a pistol, causing a wound that took eight stitches to close. Panjwan, 33, said they threatened to kill his year-old daughter if he didn't turn over an undisclosed amount of cash and jewelry in his apartment.

Awan, who lives next door, awoke with a flashlight in his eyes. One of them said, 'Don't yell. Give us your money and said Awan.
