Mother woke to see a burglar running out of her South Ham home

A MOTHER suffered a “frightening” experience when she woke to see a burglar running out of her house.

The woman was asleep at her home in Cornish Close, South Ham with her children at the time, when she heard a noise and went to investigate at 1am on March 10.

She saw a figure run out of her house after gaining access through an insecure door.

PC Dave Cook said: “Nothing is believed to have been stolen but this was a very frightening experience for the woman.

“I would appeal to anyone who was in the area at the time and may have seen someone running away from a house in Cornish Close, to contact me.

“I would also encourage people to ensure all their windows and doors are kept secure, especially overnight.”

Anyone with information should contact PC Cook at Basingstoke CID on 101.
