Appeal After Aggravated Burglary In South Belfast

The occupants of a house in South Belfast have escaped injury following an aggravated burglary in the Edinburgh Street area.

Three men, one possibly armed with a knife, entered the house before threatening the residents and taking two mobile phones and keys to a car.

The incident happened during the early hours of Friday morning.

The car was then stolen and was later found at Springfield Park in west Belfast.

Police are appealing for anyone with information to get in touch.
