A MAN received head injuries during an aggravated burglary in east Belfast during the early hours of St Stephen's Day.
Police are investigating reports that two men knocked on the door of the house in Lord Street at around 1.30 yesterday morning.
When the door was opened, both men forced their way inside and assaulted the male occupant with an unknown object, leaving him requiring medical treatment for head injuries.
The front window of the house is also believed to have been smashed by the men before they left the scene.
An investigation is underway and detectives are appealing for anyone in the Lord Street area with CCTV or dash-cam footage which could assist them with their enquiries.
