PSNI appeal in North Belfast after window of pensioner's house broken

Police are appealing for witnesses after the rear window of a pensioner's house was broken in North Belfast.

The incident happened in the Downview Avenue area on Sunday October 10.

It was reported at around 2.50pm that two men were seen 'in the area behaving in a suspicious manner' who then headed in the direction of the Antrim Road.

PSNI Detective Sergeant Fairfield added: “Officers attended, and it was discovered that a rear window at a house had been broken.

“It’s not believed that entry was gained to the property, or anything taken from it, at this time.

“The female householder, who is in her 80s, was not at home at the time of the incident.

“One of the men seen acting suspiciously in the area at the time was said to be wearing a blue coat and light grey bottoms. The other male was dressed in dark coloured trousers and a dark coloured jacket.

“The pair headed in the direction of the Antrim Road.

“Our enquiries are continuing, and we are appealing to anyone who saw anything suspicious in the area at the time, or may have CCTV footage which could assist us, to call 101, quoting reference number 1184 of 10/10/21.”

A report can also be made using the online reporting form via www.psni.police.uk/makeareport, or alternatively, information can be provided to Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111 or online at www.crimestoppers-uk.org.
