Police are hunting two men who attacked a pensioner in her own home.
It happened around 5.50pm on Tuesday, June 4, in Drummond Drive, Nuthall, after an 87-year-old woman answered a knock at the door.
Two men claimed to be warning her about a nearby burglary, when they forced their way in, injuring her in the process, before stealing money from a bedroom, police said.
The men are described as mixed race or olive-skinned and both in their early 30s.
Police said one was wearing a yellow hi-vis waistcoat and a baseball cap, while the other was wearing black clothing.
A silver vehicle may have been involved, police said.
The woman was left shaken and sustained injuries to her arm and leg which required treatment from a paramedic.
DS Charlotte Henson, of Nottinghamshire Police who is leading the investigation, said: “This is a despicable crime on an elderly woman in her own home.
"These men spared no thought for the damage, either physical or mental, that they have caused to her, and we need to catch them.
"I would urge anyone who saw men matching their description in the area at the time, or anyone who may have been passing, to contact us.”
Anyone with information is asked to call 101, quoting incident 690 of June 4.
