Three men allegedly forced their way into a Cannon Hill home late Thursday night, with a firearm discharged into the ceiling during the robbery.
Police are investigating a serious armed home invasion at Cannon Hill in Brisbane, where three men allegedly broke into a residence late Thursday night and a firearm was discharged during the incident.
The incident occurred at a home on McKie Crescent at about 11:22pm. Police allege three armed men entered the property after breaking through a glass door and demanded money from the resident.
