They look pretty terrifying but if they’re beneficial I’d rather leave them alone. Looks like wasps with bright yellow legs and faces but my searching online isn’t coming up with anything

Need help with figuring out this bug

CT, USA based. Found this small (probably around 1/8th of an inch) in bug running around on top of my freezer. I killed it with the napkin but couldn’t figure out what it was. It has wings, so I thought it might be a large gnat (we have been having a gnat issue in my home) but I’m not sure because it was scurrying around the freezer but not flying. I’m nervous it might be a roach, but not sure since it has wings and is fairly small. Sorry for a not great picture, what’s in a bit of a panic when I found it
