TWO men stole a pensioner's handbag after entering her home.
The 77-year-old woman had just returned to her property in Bent Lane, Prestwich, when the men followed her in.
As one of the tricksters engaged the pensioner in conversation, the other searched rooms and stole the handbag and £5 in cash.
Police investigations into the robbery, which happened at 3pm on Saturday (Dec 16), are continuing. Anyone with information should ring the police on 856 8157.
