At 5:18 p.m. Thursday, police officers responded to a report of a burglary in progress at an apartment in the 14100 block of Cove Landing Drive in Woodbridge, according to a police report.

The victim, a 41-year-old man, told police that he answered the door and was confronted by an unknown man and woman. The suspects forced their way into the apartment, where the man displayed a handgun and demanded money and other items.

A struggle ensued and, at one point, the suspect struck the victim in the head with the gun, the report said. The suspects eventually fled the residence and got into a white four-door sedan. Minor injuries were reported, and the area was checked by officers.
