E-fit Appeal Over Distraction Burglary On Elderly Couple in Leeds

Police have released an e-fit image of a man they want to identify over a distraction burglary at an elderly couple’s home in Leeds.

The man and two others called at the address in Livinia Grove, Woodhouse, on October 2 and arranged to resurface their driveway.

They carried out the work and returned on October 10 saying they needed to finish the job. They asked to use the toilet and a quantity of expensive jewellery with sentimental value was stolen.

Anyone who recognises the man shown in the e-fit or who has any information that could assist the investigation is asked to contact PC 3280 Adam Lawson of Leeds District Crime Team via 101 quoting crime reference 13180508474 or call the independent charity Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
