Man Beaten, Woman Bound, Mouth Taped In Marlboro Home Invasion; Third Suspect Sought

MARLBOROUGH, MA — Two men are facing charges, and a third is being sought after a home invasion in Marlborough in which a man was beaten and a woman was bound on Thursday afternoon.

Around 12:20 p.m., Officer Robert Insani was patrolling Hosmer Street and spotted a man who had fallen from the second story of a split-level house. Immediately after noticing this, he saw two men run out of the front door of the home. Both held weapons, one looking like a handgun, according to the officer.

The homeowner told police the two had broken into the home, beat him and took his money. A woman who was also home was bound and had her mouth taped shut.

Both suspects are facing multiple charges, including armed home invasion, armed robbery, assault in a dwelling while armed, kidnapping, destruction of property, carrying a firearm without a license and assault and battery with a dangerous weapon.

A third, unidentified party is a person of interest in this case. A dark Toyota Camry may have been used to drop off the suspects. Contact with the driver has not been made. Police do not believe this incident was random.

Any persons with additional information may contact the Marlborough Police Department Investigations Unit, specifically Detective Brian Cox, at 508-485-1212 Ext 36957. All callers may remain anonymous and any assistance is greatly appreciated.
