Worcester Editorial 17th Oct, 2016 Updated: 19th Oct, 2016   0

TWO men used a claw hammer and crowbar to threaten residents during a burglary in Worcester.

The incident took place between 8.30pm and 8.50pm on Friday (October 14) at a house on Gillam Street where gold jewellery, a wallet and cash were stolen.

The two offenders forced entry to the home, made an untidy search of the property and threatened the occupants with a claw hammer and a crowbar before they took refuge within a secure room.

The first suspect is described as white man with a pale complexion, aged between 23 and 27 years old, around five feet nine inches in height and had styled facial stubble that was light brown with a hint of ginger in colour.




He was wearing a cream coloured fleece material top, a grey woollen beanie hat and spoke with a local accent.

The second suspect is also described as white, medium build and five feet 11 inches in height and wearing a balaclava.
