TWO young men have been charged over the alleged violent robbery of an 80-year-old man at his home near Lowood last Friday.
Police alleged a Glamorgan Vale man, 24, and a Deebing Heights man, 21, attended the O’Reillys Weir Rd property about 3.30am on March 12.
They allegedly entered a shed located at the rear of the property in an attempt to steal fuel.
It is then the victim, who was disturbed by the commotion, attempted to stop the suspects from fleeing by taking the keys to their vehicle.
One of the suspects allegedly threatened to stab the elderly man during a struggle.
