Brutal Easter Burglary in Tyrone

On April 6th, a brutal aggravated burglary went down in County Tyrone on Easter Sunday.

Around 9.30 pm in the Whitebridge Road area of Dunganan, two guys in Balaklava's jumped

a man as he stepped out of his van.

They beat him with a baseball bat, punched and kicked him hard, then tied him up before

tearing through his house in van.

The attack got reported later that night, around 11.30 pm, but cops believe it kicked

off a couple hours earlier.

This happened right near Baligali and the suspects were dressed head to toe in dark

ear, making it a straight up nightmare scenario.

Local MLA.

Debra Erskine from the DUP called it absolutely disgraceful and shocking.

She said no one wants Balaklava, wearing thugs, running wild, attacking folks and raiding

homes, it's a disturbing sign of trouble in the community.

Her thoughts are with the victim who took a horrendous beating, police are on the case

now, hunting for these two males with no arrests yet.

They're urging anyone with info to come forward, as details like the masks and the van could

lead to quick breaks.

This kind of violence hits close to home, reminding us to stay vigilant out there while

the investigation rolls on.
