Six black men attacked an elderly couple Gert (81) and Joey (75) Pienaar from Dewetsdorp on Monday morning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Shortly after midnight, the couple heard a window breaking from their home on the farm Monday morning, but before they could do anything, they were attacked in their bedroom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The men demanded the safe and money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Jannie van Tonder, the couple\u2019s son-in-law, says the attackers hit them over the head with a glass bottle and a rifle and also stabbed them with a knife.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe guys apparently believed there was a lot of money in the house and broke open to the floorboards and flipped the whole house in search of money,\u201d says Van Tonder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The attackers tied Gert and Joey, but she was able to unwrap herself and escaped to seek help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
