The incident occurred at a complex in Brentwood Park at around 3am.
“Apparently they (criminals) broke into her house while she was asleep,” said Emer-G-Med critical care assistance paramedic Kevin van der Walt.
“She woke up and she was assaulted, apparently with a crowbar.”
Van der Walt said the victim sustained a 4cm to 5cm laceration on her head and was apparently kicked by the intruders.
She was transported to a nearby hospital in a stable condition.
