Police are looking for three suspects after a home invasion in east Hamilton early Friday morning.

Investigators say a female was assaulted and “forcibly confined” by three suspects after they busted through the front door of a home on Tuxedo Avenue North around 2 a.m.

Police say the suspects brandished a handgun and “ransacked” the home, demanding money and jewellery.

The men later fled the residence in a dark vehicle with dark tint and rims, last seen driving eastbound on Dunsmure Road before turning southbound onto Kenilworth Avenue North.
