Eldery veteran and wife severely beaten in home invasion
December 28, 2009
EAGLEVILLE - Detectives are looking for tips in the Sunday night invasion of a Floyd Road couple's home during which the elderly veteran and his wife were viciously beaten and left bound by a pair of robbers.
Cecil Story, an 86-year-old veteran of both World War II and Korea, and his 93-year-old wife, Edna, were both beaten about the face and head by two men who knocked on their door at 661 Floyd Road late Sunday night.
Story, who was a navigator on B-29 bombers and C-46 cargo aircraft during both wars, received broken facial bones in the attack and was transferred to Vanderbilt University Medical Center in Nashville for advanced treatment.
Mrs. Story, who weighs just 60 pounds, was beaten around the head, and received a deep laceration to the bridge of her nose from being hit in the face with her glasses on. She also had deep lacerations to her wrists from the nylon rope used to bind the couple to chairs in their own kitchen.
It took Mrs. Story about 15 minutes to free herself from her bindings and call for help after the robbers left the scene.
Because of blood covering their faces and the damage to her eyeglasses, no good description of the violent felons is available, though it is believed they were white.
The robbers made off with no more than about $100 which was in Story's wallet.
Our patrol division, crime scene technician and detectives worked overnight at the scene.
