A DUNGANNON pensioner was attacked in a weekend robbery. The 63 year old man was struck around the head and back with an iron bar before being tied up in his home at Derryhubbert Road in the early hours of Saturday.
The thieves made off with cash and personal items, leaving their badly battered victim in a state of shock and distress. He was treated for cuts and bruises at South Tyrone Hospital in Dungannon.
The RUC appealed for information about the incident, and wants to hear from anyone who noticed anything suspicious in the area.
