The Regina Police Service is looking for information on an attempted home invasion.

Police were called to a home on the 1800 block of Broder Street at about 7:30 Tuesday morning.

Preliminary investigation shows a man tried to enter the house by using a hatchet to break windows and damage the front door, but the man was denied entry by the resident.

The suspect then fled south into an alley.

Officers say the suspect is described as about five foot eight to five foot 10, wearing a black bandana over his face, black sunglasses and a white hoodie.

The hatchet is described as being about 18 inches long.

The investigation is ongoing and anyone with information is asked to call police or Crime Stoppers.
