Three Men Indicted for Home Invasion and Kidnapping in Douglaston

Queens, NY – Three men, Jone Smith and brothers Ryan and Brandon Dash, have been indicted by a Queens grand jury on 41 charges including kidnapping, robbery, and burglary. The trio allegedly forced their way into a Douglaston residence last month, holding a family, including children and elderly members, hostage with weapons. One woman escaped the house with her 1-year-old child to seek police assistance.

District Attorney Melinda Katz stated, “As alleged, these defendants broke into a home and held a family hostage with a loaded gun, a hammer, and a crowbar. A young mother bravely fled with her infant child to get help while family members were bound and assaulted. This crime left both this family and their neighborhood in fear. I thank the members of the NYPD for their swift actions in apprehending these defendants.”

Brandon Dash, 39, and Ryan Dash, 34, both of 218th Street in Cambria Heights, and Jone Smith, also known as Conrad Harrigan, 47, of Cambria Heights, were arraigned before Supreme Court Justice Stephanie Zaro on a 41-count indictment.
