A grandfather who was bashed and robbed at gunpoint by a gang of masked men frightened them into fleeing by 'playing dead'.
Dimos Scoullis, 81, and his wife 76-year-old wife Vicky had their home in Carlton, south Sydney, invaded by three masked and armed men shortly before 11pm on Tuesday.
Ms Scoullis, who was asleep on the couch downstairs, was held down by one of the intruders while the other two went upstairs.
There they found Mr Scoullis in the couple's bedroom where they bashed him they and put a gun to his head, demanding money.
