TWO thieves burst in to a home of a 76-year-old woman and snatched her handbag.
The pair walked into the house in Birch Avenue, Westhoughton, through an open front door at 4pm on Monday and grabbed the bag from a kitchen table.
The woman was left shaken after the intruders fled. They abandoned the bag in the front garden after taking a purse from it. Anybody with information is asked to contact police on 0161 872 5050 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
