A MAN was pistol whipped and doused with pepper spray in what police suspect was a drug deal gone wrong in Thornlie last night.
Police say two men went to a house in Elliot Place at about 11pm and argued with an occupant inside the property.
During the dispute, one of the intruders produced a gun which he bashed the victim with. The other intruder then sprayed the man and another occupant with pepper spray.
The two victims managed to lock themselves in a room and later emerged to discover a laptop had been stolen.
Police enquiries are continuing.
