An elderly couple’s Denham home was raided by two burglars while they were sat in their living room last week.

An 82-year-old man and a 92-year-old woman were at their home on Oxford Road, Tatling End, when they heard a noise in the hallway at around 9.20pm on December 28.

The man went to investigate when he discovered a rear window had been forced open and a ring, handbag and a wallet containing cash had been taken along with bank cards and the couple’s bus passes.

The two burglars were seen leaving from the front of the couple’s home.

The first offender is described as white, in his sixties and of stocky build.

He was wearing a grey hooded top, grey tracksuit bottoms with white stripes and white trainers, and was seen walking away in the direction of the Londis shop in Fulmer Corner, Oxford Road.

The second offender was wearing a dark hooded top and walked towards Toby Carvery in Oxford Road.

Investigating officer PC Paul Bridgeworth, of Local CID based at Taplow police base, said: "This has been a very distressing incident for the elderly couple involved and I would like to appeal for anyone with any information to get in touch via the 24-hour Thames Valley Police enquiry centre by dialling 101."
