The intruder, whose face was reportedly covered, kicked-in the door of the residence and demanded money.

Jeremy Saunders and his wife Susanna reportedly complied with the request, but Saunders was struck in the head with the butt of a gun, receiving a gash on the forehead.

Reports indicate the gunman, who could have been accompanied by another person, was a tall man wearing a camouflage jacket.

He fled the area in what could have been a GMC truck.
