A man has been hospitalised following a violent robbery at a Luddenham property yesterday afternoon.
About 1.15pm yesterday, a 59-year-old man was at the rear of a home on Luddenham Road, Luddenham, when a silver hatchback stopped outside the property.

“Police have been told the 59-year-old was assaulted by two men, one armed with a baseball bat, who followed the man inside,” a Police spokesperson said.
“A 57-year-old woman inside the home was threatened by the intruders.
