Jewellery taken during break-in
Jewellery that was of sentimental value to its owner was taken from a home during a break-in where thieves smashed a window to get in.
It happened between 2pm on Friday, January 27 and 7.30pm on Monday, February 6, at the home in Lybury Lane, Redbourn.
Once inside thieves closed the curtains before carrying out their raid.
Among the goods taken was a square, silver compact with the initials MM and WP on it, a gold bracelet with 18th Aug 1971 inscribed on the inside. A solitaire diamond and baguette white gold ring with three while gold balls soldered onto the inside and a gold pocket watch with initials on the back.
A Toshiba flat screen television with built in Freeview was also taken.
Det Con Karen Webb said: “I would appeal to anyone who may have seen or been offered these items for sale to contact us. Some of the items stolen had belonged to the victim’s mum, who passed away recently. The victim had hoped to pass them down the generations of her family.
“I would also ask for people to be vigilant if they see their neighbour’s curtains closed and this is unusual. If you are concerned please call police.”
Anyone with information is asked to contact Ms Webb via the Herts Police non-emergency number 101 quoting crime reference number F2/12/216. Alternatively call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
