Kent Police officers investigating a report of an aggravated burglary in Capel-le-Ferne have issued a computer-generated image of a man they want to identify.
The incident happened at a property in Cauldham Lane at around 11.15pm on Thursday November 16.
One victim, a man in his 80s, received a minor head injury after intruders tried to force their way in through the front door.
The suspects had also tried to get into the main house via the kitchen.
Three men who were wearing dark clothing ran away along Capel Street before taking anything from the property.
It is believed that all three of them were wearing balaclavas and one was described as being black, 5ft 9 inches and of slim build.
Anyone with information about the alleged offence or the identity of the suspects are urged to call the Kent Police appeal line on 01843 222289 quoting ZY/56902/17 or Kent Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555111.
