Police Appeal Following Burglary In Magherafelt
Police are appealing for information following an aggravated burglary at the home of a woman in Ballyronan, Magherafelt.
Cash and jewellery were stolen in the incident on Tuesday.
Sergeant Sam Young said: "At about 11am, two men in a small blue van called at the house, which is on the road between Ballyronan and Toome.
"They said that the van had broken down and asked if someone could help push it. When the householder said there was no one else there, they pushed past her and into the house.
"One of the men had a knife and the woman was ordered to sit down while they searched through the house.
"We would like to hear from anyone who saw the van in the area. We are also keen to establish if it called at any other homes in the vicinity on Tuesday morning."
