    Pensioner in shock after break-in

    A pensioner was left in shock after two men forced their way into her Hornsey home before making off with her handbag last week.

    The incident happened at around 8.15pm last Wednesday when the two men forced their way in through the front door of the house in Waldegrave Road.

    The woman, in her 80s, was in her lounge at the time when one of them men pushed her to the floor and took her handbag before leaving.

    Police attended the scene and found the woman in shock and still on the floor.

    She has since made a full recovery.

    The suspects are described as being two white men, aged around 30, with one taller than the other. Both were wearing dark clothing.

    If you have information that may assist police please contact Detective Sergeant Nadia Cilenti of the burglary squad on 020 8345 0887 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 11.
