Another neighbour told the paper that Mr Rosenthal had been “punched in the face”.
A Metropolitan Police spokesperson confirmed that officers were investigating “an aggravated burglary in Cricklewood that took place on May 11.
“Officers were called to a residential property at 1:14am to a report of multiple armed intruders forcing their way inside.
“'Various items were stolen before the suspects left the scene. No arrests. Enquiries continue.”
Last week, Arsenal footballers Mesut Ozil and Sead Kolasinac, were attacked outside the latter’s house in Hampstead, with knife-wielding thieves on mopeds attempting to steal the player’s watches.
The footballers managed to drive off, but were pursued by the moped gang, who tried to break the car windows with stones and bricks.
The chase ended on Golders Green Road when the footballers abandoned their vehicle and sought shelter in Likya, a Turkish restaurant frequented by the pair. The gang left the area minutes before the police showed up.
Last year, comedian Michael Macintyre was targeted in Golders Green by two men on a moped while he was waiting to pick up his son from school.
The robbers smashed Mr Macintyre’s car windows with a hammer, before taking his watch and fleeing the scene.
