South Strabane police tell the Observer-Reporter of Washington, Pa. that a man in his 30s or 40s broke into the home about 11 a.m.
Police say the burglar pulled a knife on the homeowner, who police are not identifying. When the men struggled, the homeowner split the burglar's forehead with the mug and he ran away.
Detective John Bruner expects the burglar, and whoever was driving a car he hopped into, were looking for jewelry or other items to be pawned for drug money.
