He was hit on the head and forced into the residence, where the robbers demanded money. The shot husbands were also threatened and assaulted.

After the robbers left, the victims themselves were able to alert the police. They immediately launched a major investigation, including a neighborhood search. Because it was still light, several neighbors would have witnessed something of the everywhere.

Five weeks ago, on June 21, a violent robbery took place on an elderly couple on Haafsweg near Doetichem. Again, masked men forced their way into an outlying home. The husband and wife were assaulted and locked in the basement.

As far as is known, the perpetrators of this robbery have not yet been apprehended.
