Sep 4, 2012, 6:45 AM | Updated: 7:53 am

One man was injured in a home invasion robbery in north Seattle on Monday.

The victims reportedly answered the door thinking it was someone they knew and the intruders forced their way into the apartment located in the 11500 block of 26th Avenue NE.

One of the suspects struck one of the residents on the head with a blunt unidentified object. The two suspects then took both victims’ wallets, a cell phone, and a jar of marijuana.

The victim was treated by the Seattle Fire Department for a laceration on the back of the head.

Police are looking for two suspects in the case. The first suspect is described as a light-skinned black male in his 20s. He was wearing a red bandana, dark hoodie and jeans. The second suspect is described as a darker-skinned black male in his 20s also wearing a dark hoodie and jeans.

Anyone with information about this incident or who may know the identity or whereabouts of the suspects is asked to call 911 or the Seattle Police Robbery Unit at (206) 684-5535. They say anonymous tips are welcome.
