The Windsor Police Service says it's looking for five suspects after a violent home invasion in east Windsor. 

It happened shortly after 11 p.m. on Monday, police said in a news release issued Thursday.

Four individuals forced their way into a residence in the 2,500 block of Luxury Avenue While one stood outside. 

Police say they assaulted, bound and threatened an 87-year-old man and a 75-year-old woman who were home at the time, police said.

The suspects allegedly then stole personal items, money, and a sport utility vehicle, which was later recovered in the area of Firgrove Drive and Monticello Street. 

Both victims sustained injures not considered to be life-threatening, police said.

Investigators are asking everyone who lives in the area to check their dash-cam or surveillance footage, specifically between the hours of 10:30 and 11:30 p.m. on Jan. 13, for evidence related to the case. 

They are asking anyone with information to call the major crimes unit or Crime Stoppers anonymously. 

The incident is the second violent home invasion reported in the city this week.
