Elderly woman burgled twice

Police in Tameside are hunting a burglar who preyed on an 89-year-old woman twice in three days. The elderly victim, who lives on Birch Lane, Dukinfield, was targeted by the offender on Saturday 15 September and Tuesday 18 September 2007. In the first incident, at around 8am on Saturday, a man approached the back of the house and forced open an outer door. He then smashed the glass in the kitchen door and got into the kitchen. Moments later the victim disturbed the burglar in her living room as he was stealing two purses, cash and a benefits book. He claimed he was the milkman, then walked out of the house. The second incident occurred at 4.15am on the Tuesday. The offender approached the back of the house and attempted to kick in the kitchen door. He then fell backwards into a glass panel in the porch, smashing it. He then went to the front of the house and banged on the front door, waking the woman. She went to the front door and was told by the man that he was a police officer investigating burglaries in the area. She didn't believe him and asked him to produce identification. However, he refused and kicked open the front door. He walked past the woman and stole some cash from inside the house. The woman then followed him and threatened him with her walking stick, which resulting in him fleeing the house. It's believed that the same man is responsible for both incidents. He is described as white, between 5ft 9in and 5ft 10in tall, in his late 20s and early 30s, with a slim build and wearing a dark coloured lightweight jacket. If anyone saw a man fitting this description in the area around the time of the burglaries or witnessed the man knocking on doors they can call Ashton-under-Lyne Volume Crime Unit on 0161 856 9262 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.

If the scum who done this gets caught he should be fed to the dogs.

Feel sorry for the victims of crime and violence, not the drug addicts and the scum that cause fear and anti-social behaviour on our streets. I have no time for these people that knock old people to the ground outside the post office. I was told about this 92 year old who was mugged outside the main post office in Hyde, no one came to help her. I say this, you f...... bastards.

That is the problem Roy. People have lost their sense of community and would sooner turn a blind eye rather than help a fellow citizen in distress. Until we regain a strong sense of community we will suffer more of this wild west style lawless behaviour. As long as we have liberal do gooders infesting mainstream political thinking - the thieves and scumbags will always have the upper hand. Britain needs a non pc nationalist government to sort this unholy mess out.

Fucking scum. They need shooting.

I remember my granddad being robbed. The heartless thugs took his medals and raided the house leaving it in a mess. The police had an idea who it was, but didn't have enough evidence to prosecute. My granddad was shocked from the experience and lived with my family until he died.

I have reported anti social behavior on numerous times for it to go unnoticed by the police, it is only until something became a hate crime that they have decided to take action.

You can not put it down to the hard working officers, it is the PC bureaucrats and the prosecution who are to blame. I was reading some statistics from the Conservative party at a recent event and apparently on average, police officers only spend 1 out of 5 days on the beat and in Greater Manchester we have seen a decline of 181 police officers in the last 3 years.

My respect goes out to Richard Ambler at the last council meeting who blasted the recent crime figures and called for more police officers on our streets as to the ineffective "traffic wardens" we have today.

We need more prisons, less rights for criminals and a more harsh prosecution.

What pisses me off is that you have groups of prisoners who campaign for better conditions in the cells. Since when did prison become a pleasant place for criminals? Should prisoners feel comfortable in their cells? Should they have a TV? Should they have a Playstation?! The answer is that if we are to deter crime, we must make it so that prison is not a hotel for criminals. Another thing which angers me is these "rehabilitation" schemes where a prisoner is offered training to get a career so they end up better off. Sorry but there are plenty of law abiding families who struggle and don't have the time to take a course to further their skills. Stop benefiting the criminals and give the law abiding public pride back in Britain.

Roy and Ex Para, indeed it is a shame that the public don't confront yobs or report it. This is because people are afraid of the repercussions it may have on them and I don't blame them as selfish as it sounds.

I do not encourage vigilantism. It should not be the case of where other members of the public have to put themselves at risk. We need more police officers patrolling our streets and strike fear into these delinquents.

I hate Liberalism with a passion, I have no time for the do-gooders that are more concerned with the well being drug addicts and low life street muggers. The victims of abuse and violent crime come first in my mind. To hell with all these social workers and tossers that think more about the f...... that attack the vulnerable in our society.

I also went to the last Ashton District Assembly and heard Cllr Ambler discussing the crime figures. So that was you Liam, sitting in the middle.

This dog is the true face of Cllr John Taylor, the hate for Roy West is becoming known to the people of Dukinfield. Everyone is talking about the political situation in Dukinfield.

My wife and I organised a community response to local yobs including a public meeting. The Police parked their video van outside the venue to film US and ignored the yobs!

Only when we persisted in our campaign did the local police and councillors take us seriously.

Eventually we made a citizen's arrest on one of them and handed him over to the police. It went quiet then...oh yes we also had "help" from some big lads!
