IRASBURG, Vt. (AP) - Police say an 88-year-old Vermont man was awakened and forced to sit and watch as a man and woman robbed him.

Norman Dion of Irasburg reported the home invasion and robbery to police early Thursday. He said he was ordered to sit in a chair while the couple finished rummaging through his house and stole his belongings, including prescription drugs and money.

Dion was not hurt.
