QUINCY, MASS. (WHDH) - A woman was pistol-whipped by a man who robbed her husband in Quincy and police are now searching for the suspect.
The robbery happened on Fayette Street. Police said a man was coming home from work at around 1 a.m. Monday morning when he was approached by the suspect, who was carrying a handgun. Surveillance video showed the suspect shoving the man inside his house.

Once inside, police said the suspect demanded cash. The man’s wife ran to the door to try to help her husband, where police said the suspect pistol-whipped her with his handgun. Lee said he heard his mother screaming.
