A man in his 50s has reportedly been threatened with a knife by masked intruders who broke into his home.

The incident allegedly happened at a property in Royal Road, Ramsgate, between midnight and 1am on Tuesday.

It was reported that the victim received minor injuries, after two men – both wearing dark clothing and balaclavas – forced their way into his living room and threatened him with a knife.

They allegedly then ran from the address, without taking anything.
