Around 11.30pm, four men forced entry into the Springburn Drive house and confronted a 69-year-old woman and a 76-year-old man who were asleep at the time.
The group armed with a crow bar, forced the pair to sit on a chair in the bedroom while they searched the residence.
The 76-year-old man was struck in the face by one of the men before they fled the house with the victims’ jewellery, mobile phones and a purse.
