A 79-year-old Siparia woman was beaten and robbed by two armed assailants during a home invasion on the morning of May 21.

Police reports said the woman was in the kitchen of her Quarry Village home when two masked men ran in through her unlocked front door around 9.45 am. The men announced a robbery before beating her, tying her hands and feet together.

The men took two televisions, $5,000 cash, jewellery and two 20-pound gas cylinders. The men then escaped on foot.
