Family attacked and tied up in terrifying burglary ordeal

A man and two women suffered an horrific ordeal whilst jewellery and cash were stolen from a Wilmslow home.

Four to five masked offenders dressed in dark clothing forced their way into the house on Prestbury Road some time between 10pm and 11pm on Sunday, 22nd April.

They assaulted a man and demanded access to a safe. They then assaulted him again and restrained him along with two women, leaving them in the bathroom. The man received minor injuries to his face.

DC Jim Bowbeer said: "This was an extremely distressing incident for the family. Thankfully this type of crime is rare in Cheshire and we are doing all we can to apprehend the offenders.

"We are particularly keen to trace a silver BMW 320 coupe which was stolen from the address.

"It was last seen travelling at speed on the A34 towards Manchester at around 11pm. I would urge anyone who saw this car to contact me."

Anyone with information should contact DC Jim Bowbeer on 101 quoting incident number 916 of 22 April 2012. Alternatively information can be given anonymously on the Crimestoppers number 0800 555 111.
