Intruders threw boiling water at man

Two armed intruders ordered a man to strip naked in his home as one of them boiled a kettle and threw the water at him, it was claimed yesterday by a detective.

Det Sgt Malachy White outlined the allegations in respect of a reported burglary in the Blackrock area of Cork.

The 36-year-old householder was asleep in bed when he woke at 1.30am to find two males standing over him on Dec 16, 2012.
