- The Reporter

Hatfield police are seeking informatio­n about a home invasion in which a township man was injured early Thursday morning, Nov. 7. The perpetrato­rs — who should be considered “armed and dangerous,” police say — fled the scene, and there were no reports of their apprehensi­on as of Thursday night.

The Hatfield Township Police Department responded to the 1400 block of Leas Way for a robbery at 6:18 a.m. Thursday. Responding officers learned a male had just returned home from the Philadelph­ia area. While exiting his car in the driveway, he was approached by several individual­s who held him at gun point. The man was forced into the residence where he was tied up and assaulted. The perpetrato­rs stole numerous personal items from the residence, including several firearms.

They fled the residence in the

victim’s silver 2003 BMW 525i station wagon Pennsylvan­ia registrati­on JGN-5269.

The victim suffered laceration­s to his head and face and was transporte­d by VMSC to Lansdale Hospital, where he was treated for his injuries.

The Hatfield Township Police are requesting the public’s assistance with locating the BMW. Anyone with informatio­n on the location of this BMW or has informatio­n on this crime is asked to contact the Hatfield Township Police Department Detective Division #215-855-0903 or through PoliceTips@hatfieldto­wnship.org
