Home invaders spray victim in eyes

The West Australian February 10, 2013, 8:56 am

A Rockingham man was sprayed in the eyes and threatened with a knife by three home invaders last night.

A police spokesman said the man was at his Boon Court home around at 10.08pm when the trio "forced entry to a house and sprayed an unknown substance in the eyes of the home owner, causing irritation".

They threatened him with a knife while demanding money.

The "victim managed to run from the house calling for help and offenders ran off down a nearby laneway," police said.

The alleged burglars are described as white male, slim, wearing masks, in their mid twenties.
