Thousands of pounds snatched in home raid

Theives ransacked a home making off with thousands of pounds that had been saved for a family holiday.

A Hemel Hempstead couple, who are too upset to be identified, had 6,500 stashed in their bedroom - cash that was going to be used to take their children, aged five to 16, abroad.

Jewellery, including diamond rings and a Rolex watch, were also snatched from the home in Hobletts Road.

Burglars struck in broad daylight on Friday, November 6 between 2.15pm and 3pm. They first tried to force open a back door at the property before smashing a conservatory window.

Herts Police has since visited the home to give crime prevention advice.

Anyone with information about this crime should call the Hert Police non emergency number on 0845 33 00 222, quoting reference D1/09/8504.
