A father was stabbed repeatedly by burglars in front of his wife and daughter when he caught them raiding his house last night.
The man, named by neighbours as Tony Abrahams, 47, walked into the three intruders on his landing after hearing his 23-year-old daughter, Jade, wake up and scream as they tried to take a television from her room.
He was awoken by the noise and went to investigate, it is claimed.
But he came face-to-face with the group and was knifed three times before the men fled the £200,000 Luton home on foot.
Mr Abrahams, said to be in a serious but stable condition, was taken to Luton and Dunstable Hospital after his wife Catrina, 52, and daughter raised the alarm at 3.25am.
The gang are believed to have forced their way into the property as the family slept on Saturday night.
Detective Constable Mo Hussain has appealed for details from witnesses who may have been in the area at the time or may have seen the three offenders either before or after the attack.
