A family of seven was forced to flee their home in Co Tyrone early today when it was attacked by a gang of masked men.
Just after midnight a large number of masked men, who police said were armed with hurley sticks, bats and possibly a hand gun, forced their way into the house at Springhill Park in Strabane and forced the family out.
The family members were aged from 59 to a child of six, said police.
A PSNI spokeswoman said a motive for the attack was being investigated and appealed for any witnesses or anyone with information to contact them.
