Reports from the scene indicate that five men, two armed with pistols jumped over a boundary wall and began attempting to smash through a front door to the home when they were confronted by the homeowner.
The man attempted to fight off the suspects and a tussle ensued with the homeowner punching one of the suspects in the face before the armed men allegedly tried shooting the homeowner however remarkably their weapons jammed preventing the shots from being discharged.
The men scaled the wall, fleeing in an awaiting getaway vehicle empty-handed.
