The homeowners were asleep in their bedroom when they were awakened by a noise.
Police say suspects forced their way into the residence from the rear yard, and an altercation took place, during which one resident, a 38-year-old man, received minor injuries but declined medical attention.
The home invasion happened just hours after Ward 7 Coun. Donna Skelly hosted a public meeting to discuss recent violent crime and public safety on Hamilton Mountain.
