Police probe robbery at Wakefield home

By Sarah Gantz, Globe Correspondent

Police in Wakefield are investigating a robbery at a home on Hickory Hill Road.

A man described by police as in his forties was treated on the scene for scratch wounds after the two robbers had fled the Hickory Hill residence in a gold Ford Explorer, said Wakefield Police Lieutenant Mark Pherson.

Four children were also at the home at the time of the robbery.

Police responded at 1:22 p.m. to a 911 call made from within the house. The robbers entered through the front door, said Pherson, who was not certain if they forced entry.

Authorities did not say what was stolen from the residence or provide a description of the robbers.
