A World War II veteran was bashed in his home and robbed of his medals four days after Anzac Day, police say.

The 86-year-old man was confronted by his attacker when he returned to his Drummoyne home on The Esplanade about 9pm on Sunday, April 29.

The intruder punched the elderly man in the face and fled with his property, including five World War II medals.

The man was taken to Concord Hospital where he was treated for injuries to his face, shoulder and back. He has since been released from hospital.

The police are looking for a man, possibly of Asian appearance, about 30-years-old and tall, with a slim build, short dark hair, wearing dark clothing and white gloves.

Anyone with information that could assist investigators is asked to contact Burwood detectives on 9745 8499 or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Bastards. I hope they get one hell of an ass-raping when they end up in the clink.

I agree with you doesn't even matter what colour or nationality he is it's inexcusable. If he would be white I'd be just as pissed.

this in itself brings in another debate...re-introduce the death penalty
i'm all for it,only in the matters of murders and rapes though, although it should apply to car thieves,as back in the horse days,to steal a mans horse was a hanging offence,as it was his only means of transport,but in todays society,this would be frowned upon,unless you have had a car stolen,then people would understand how you feel.

Not exactly he would have fought germans, italians or japenese. They said asian which can mean anyone from that area.

so ....what about the vietnam vets.....doesn't their opinion count?!(a little bit out of context i know,but it still applies,probably more so for this elderly man,as he understands the memories for all involved in any war)

Mate the guy is a WWII vet, remember it went WWII, Korea, Vietnam. I'm interested how highly you regard the PNG people considering their help was what defended Australia?
