BURGLARS handcuffed an 80-year-old man and hit his daughter over the head during a break-in near Eastwood.
Detectives are appealing for information following the burglary, which happened in Moorgreen at about 9pm on Friday.
Four men forced their way into the house after a woman answered the door. She later required hospital treatment for a head injury.
Her father was handcuffed as men searched the house.
It is believed the men were looking for a cannabis grow but when they discovered there was no cannabis they left the house and drove off in a waiting vehicle.
The men are white and in their early 20s to mid-30s.
Police are keen to speak to anyone who saw any suspicious activity in the Moorgreen area at around 9pm on Friday, or who knows anything at all about the incident, no matter how insignificant they may think that detail is.
Anyone with information should telephone Notts Police on 101, quoting incident number 858 of Friday, January 18.
Alternatively, call Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
