Police say a legally blind man attacked in a home invasion robbery used a kitchen pot as he tried to fight off his attackers.
Tom Guzzi says two men claiming to be utility workers investigating a gas leak asked to see his gas meter early Saturday morning. He says the men attacked him after he led them into his basement.
