A MAN was battered outside his home by two weapon-wielding brutes.
The 64-year-old had just left his property in Wraisland Crescent, Bishopton, at around 1am on Friday when he was pounced upon by the pair.
They attacked him with metal poles before leaving the scene.
The victim had to be taken to the Royal Alexandra Hospital, in Paisley, where he was treated for fractures to his hand and lacerations to his head.
Police are asking anyone with information to call them on 101.
