A 71-year-old San Fer­nan­do man was at­tacked in his home by Span­ish-speak­ing ban­dits who robbed him of his car.

The el­der­ly man told po­lice that around 8 pm on Jan­u­ary 30 he went to bed, but hours lat­er, around 3.30 am, he heard a loud noise at his front door.

When he opened the door to in­ves­ti­gate, three Span­ish-speak­ing men armed with a pry bar and a knife con­front­ed him.

They forced him back in­to his home, bound his hands and feet with pieces of cloth, and ran­sacked the house.

They es­caped in his white Nis­san Y11 AD Wag­on.

San Fer­nan­do Po­lice are in­ves­ti­gat­ing.
