Woman tied to fence and beaten in cash raid on home

A WOMAN in her late 60s was dragged from her home, tied to a fence and brutally beaten in a violent robbery at the weekend.

Experienced gardaí say the attack in Co Waterford was “one of the most vicious” they have encountered. They issued an appeal last night for help from the public in finding those responsible.

Gardaí believe three men broke into the 68-year-old woman’s house at Drumgelane, Grange, near Ardmore, at about 4.40am on Saturday.
