Burglars broke into the home of an elderly couple in Dawley stealing jewellery and more than £150 in cash, police said today.
The home on Park Road was targeted between 12.30pm and 9.30pm on Tuesday. The burglars approached the property via the back garden after breaking a padlock on a gate.
They then forced open a door to the conservatory to gain access to the house.
A police spokesman said: “Several rooms in the property were completely ransacked by the thieves who stole an 18 carat gold, two-diamond twisted ring and more than £150 in cash from the master bedroom before making their escape.
“On returning home at 9.30pm, the elderly couple were extremely upset.”
Anyone with any information is asked to call the police on 101 or Crimestoppers anonymously on . from
