Senior robbed of money and prescription drugs

Halifax police are looking for four men they say robbed a 62-year-old man and hit him in the head.

They say it happened last night at about 7:30 when the man heard a knock at his door on Plateau Crescent. When he opened it, four men came in, hitting him in the head, and demanding cash and prescription drugs.

The victim was taken to hospital by ambulance to be treated for non-life threatening injuries, and the four suspects made off with some cash and drugs.

Police say they don’t believe this was a random incident.

The four are described as white men in their twenties. Police say they were wearing hoodies that covered their faces, one of which was bright orange.
