AN ELDERLY man suffered injuries to his face and forearms after being attacked and burgled at his Northwood home.
The 70-year-old victim, who lives in Ducks Hill Road, answered the door to two men who forced their way in and assaulted him.

"We need your help. Please contact us if you were driving in Ducks Hill Road at that time and saw the two males matching these descriptions or if you saw any cars acting suspiciously in the area."
