A pensioner has been tied up and beaten during a robbery at his home in County Down. Clifford Mooney, who's 69 years old, was returning from a prayer meeting late on Tuesday night when he was attacked by robbers at his home in Slieveshan Park in Kilkeel. He was hit on the head with a weapon and punched in the face, stomach and ribs before being tied up and gagged.
