A 68-year-old woman died, possibly of a heart attack, after three suspects stormed her Brooklyn home early Friday, covered her roommate's head with a sweater and bashed him several times with a hammer before running off with some belongings, according to police.



Authorities say a woman and two men broke into the East Flatbush apartment around 3 a.m. and attacked the 40-year-old male roommate.



The man was taken to Brookdale Hospital in stable condition. The 68-year-old woman was unconscious at the scene, but with no visible trauma.



Details on the items taken from the home weren't immediately clear.
