NORRISTOWN, PENNSYLVANIA - A Pennsylvania robbery suspect was hospitalized after being stabbed with a samurai sword during a home invasion Tuesday morning, authorities said in press release.

The suspect, identified as Marcus Armstrong, 35, attempted to rob two people, a man and a woman, outside of a Norristown home, according to Norristown police.

Police told ABC News' Philadelphia station WPVI that Armstrong forced his way into the Norristown home, where he encountered the male victim armed with a samurai sword.

"The roommate defended himself. He had the samurai sword and took a swipe at the suspect," Det. Josh Samuels told WPVI, referring to the male victim. "It was a pretty chaotic scene this morning, I would say for sure."
