Detectives are investigating after a couple were asleep in their home and woke up to find a male intruder inside their bedroom, Queensland Police say.
Initial inquiries indicate around 9.40pm a 36-year-old woman saw a man climb through the bedroom window. She yelled out and woke up a 37-year-old man.
A struggle ensured during which both men sustained injuries, as did the woman.
The injured intruder fled the home through the kitchen and later presented to Maryborough Hospital with injuries consisting of lacerations to his arm and face.
The man and woman were both transported to Hervey Bay Hospital with the woman having sustained a laceration to her hand.
The man received lacerations to his face and abdomen and scratches to his neck and back.
None of the injuries are considered life threatening.
Police investigations are continuing.
