Hamilton police investigating 2 ‘targeted’ home invasions

Hamilton police are investigating two separate home invasions that happened over the weekend in the city.

On Saturday evening, police were called to a home near Upper Horning Rd. and Mohawk St.

Officers found a man suffering from non-life-threatening injuries. Police learned the victim had invited a man to his home and it’s believed that person allowed another man inside.

During the incident, one of the suspects pulled out a black handgun. Police are looking for two men who are described as white and roughly six-foot-one. One of the men had a thin build, dark hair, and was wearing a black jacket. They were both seen leaving in a red Jeep Compass.

The second incident happened just before 3 p.m. on Sunday. Police were called to a home near Limeridge Rd. West and West 5th St.

Police say three men broke into a home where a woman, her child and a man were inside. The child was not physically hurt during the incident but the man and woman suffered non-life threatening injuries. Police say the victims are not cooperating.

Investigators say both home invasions were targeted and anyone with information can contact Hamilton police or Crime Stoppers.
