Police Investigate Home Invasion At Cardiff

BY IAN CROUCH

Two men are recovering in the John Hunter Hospital after a home invasion at Cardiff.

Police say two men dressed in black and armed with a crowbar and a baseball bat forced their way into a home on Harrison Street at about 11.00pm on Sunday and assaulted two male residents aged 41 and 46 before running off and making their getaway in a vehicle.

The victims managed to raise the alarm and emergency services arrived a short time later.

The victims were taken to hospital with non-life threatening injuries and are reported to be in a stable condition.

Police believe the offenders and the victim were known to each other.

A motive for the attack is not yet clear.

Anyone who can assist police with their inquiries is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
