Police are investigating a violent home invasion in Cunupia in which a man was beaten and a couple robbed of tens of thousands of dollars in cash during the early hours of Monday morning.

The incident occurred around 1a.m. at a house along Jonathan Trace, Blue Stone Gardens, in the Cunupia police district. The couple had been asleep in separate bedrooms when the male occupant went outside into the yard to let out the family’s dogs.

While outside, he was confronted by five men dressed in dark clothing with their heads and faces covered. The suspects immediately began beating him before forcing him back inside the house.
