A 75-year-old man was robbed and kidnapped Thursday while opening a Long Island synagogue for morning prayers, Nassau County police said.
The man was stuffed into the trunk of his car for about an hour until he was able to escape, police said.
The incident began at 5:50 a.m., when the man was preparing the Young Israel Synagogue in North Woodmere for the morning service, police said.
Police said the two masked robbers with guns demanded money from the man, who was not identified. The man told them he had no money, so they took his car and ATM card and put him in the trunk of the car.
The man said the robbers drove around for about an hour, making a couple of stops.
When the car stopped and the man didn't hear voices in the car anymore, he was able to pry open the trunk, escape and call police.
