Police are hunting a man following a "random and nasty" attack on a couple in their Tokoroa home overnight.
About 2am, the unknown man entered a St Andrews Drive home and threatened the occupants, a middle-aged couple, with a crowbar.
The woman suffered minor injuries to her hand as a result.
The offender fled the scene, taking a number of items from the house.
The couple had been left shaken and support was being provided, police said in a statement.
