TWO elderly ladies had their purses stolen while they were in the Chilterns Shopping Centre on Monday.

Between 12.30pm and 1.30pm the victims had been shopping in The Works together.

When they went to pay for items they noticed their purses were missing from their handbags.

The stolen purses contained money and bus passes.
