Masterton Police are investigating an aggravated robbery at a Renall Street home on the evening of Monday 10 December. 
 
At around 9.15pm that night, two women and a man entered the home and assaulted three people.  Two of the victims suffered facial injuries and one sustained bruising to her arms and legs. 
 
A weapon was used to inflict some of the injuries, and one of the victims required hospitalisation and surgery for facial injuries (pictured).
