Man Hurt During Robbery at His NE Phila. Home

Police are investigating a violent home invasion in Northeast Philadelphia.

KYW's Margie Smith reports that just after 8:00 this morning, two men broke into a home in the 900 block of Unruh Avenue.  They tied up a man and his wife with duct tape and pistol-whipped the man, injuring him in the head.

The couple's three-year-old daughter was also in the house but was not injured.  Her father was hospitalized in stable condition.

The men escaped with $50,000 in jewelry from a safe, $5,000 in cash, a camcorder, two laptop computers, and the couple's black Toyota Corolla.
