   A couple is suing the New York hotel they stayed at in 2021 for failing   
   to provide adequate security, saying they were robbed at gunpoint after   
   they opened their room door expecting Uber Eats.   
      
   The lawsuit, which was filed Friday in Kings County Supreme Court in   
   Brooklyn, names as defendants the Boro Hotel in Long Island City,   
   Queens, and the corporations that own and manage the hotel. The   
   plaintiffs are identified only as John Doe and Jane Doe. Supreme Court   
   is the name of New York state's highest trial court.   
      
   The violent robbery occurred after midnight on Jan. 2, 2021, according   
   to the lawsuit. Jane Doe heard a knock at the door, and John Doe got up   
   to answer it, believing it was an Uber Eats delivery worker.   
      
   “At which point two (2) men (‘assailants’) pushed through the door. One   
   (1) man pushed Plaintiff, JOHN DOE to the ground and put a gun to his   
   head,” the suit says. “The other assailant pulled the covers off of   
   Plaintiff, JANE DOE and tied her legs together with a sheet. The two (2)   
   assailants took the Plaintiffs, JANE DOE and JOHN DOE’s wallets,   
   jewelry, car keys, and sneakers and left the hotel room.”   
      
   The robbery caused the plaintiffs emotional trauma that includes   
   flashbacks, nightmares and other physical manifestations of injuries,   
   including heart-racing and sweating, according to the suit.   
      
   A Boro Hotel spokesperson said in a statement: “This claim is without   
   merit. We fully cooperated with law enforcement in their 2021   
   investigation. The circumstances giving rise to the alleged robbery are   
   highly suspicious. Safety is our absolute top priority, and this type of   
   incident has not occurred in our seven years of operation. We look   
   forward to having this frivolous suit dismissed.”   
      
   Attorney Mark Shirian, who is representing the couple, who are in their   
   20s, said in a statement Monday: “The victims entrusted their safety and   
   well-being to Boro Hotel, expecting a secure and protected environment   
   during their stay. Regrettably, the hotel failed to fulfill its duty of   
   care and maintain adequate security measures to prevent criminal   
   activities on its premises.”   
      
   The statement continued: “This failure directly resulted in our clients   
   becoming targets of a heinous act, causing significant emotional   
   distress, physical harm, and financial losses. We firmly believe that   
   hotels have a paramount responsibility to ensure the safety of their   
   guests. Negligent security, as alleged in this lawsuit, represents a   
   breach of that duty.”   
      
   The suit alleges dangerous areas existed at the hotel because of poor   
   lighting, secluded areas, poor security and no surveillance in or near   
   the lobby.   
      
   After the robbery, the plaintiffs went to the lobby to report the crime   
   and police were called, the lawsuit says. When the plaintiffs spoke to   
   police, they were shown video of the suspects leaving the hotel but   
   believed there was no video of the suspects entering it, the lawsuit   
   says.   
      
   New York City police did not immediately comment Monday to update the   
   case and their investigation.   
      
   The plaintiffs are asking for monetary damages for personal injuries,   
   battery and assault, as well as negligence on behalf of the defendants,   
   according to the lawsuit.
