A man was forced to run from his unit naked, pleading for help from neighbours, after a home invasion on Brisbane's bayside on Tuesday night.
Two men arrived at the door of a Worthing Street unit at Wynnum about 10.45pm, police said.
The duo threatened the male resident with a stick.
The resident, aged in his 40s, managed to escape and began knocking on neighbour's doors pleading for help. He was naked at the time.
"They were all known to each other," a police spokeswoman said.
The resident stayed with a neighbour until police arrived.
Police are hoping to speak to two women who also live at the Worthing Street unit.
Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
