Man charged in Danbury home invasion

DANBURY, Conn. (AP) — A man charged in a violent home invasion in Danbury is set to appear in court, while three other suspects are being sought by police.

Thirty-seven-year-old Jacob George of Newtown is scheduled to be arraigned Monday in Danbury Superior Court on first-degree assault, home invasion and other charges connected to Saturday night's attack that left a 40-year-old man with serious injuries. George is being held on $100,000 bail.

Police told the News-Times of Danbury that the four suspects broke into a home on Clapboard Ridge Road in an attempt to find another man, but he wasn't there.

Police say the suspects punched and kicked a man in the house. Authorities didn't release the victim's name or condition.

It's not clear if George has a lawyer.
