Knife wielding gang attack women in their home

11:04am Wednesday 2nd January 2013 in News By Gina Marden

TWO women were threatened by knife-wielding raiders in a terrifying early morning attack at their home.

The two women were at the house in Orsett Village when the three armed men burst in.

As the victims shook with terror, the men threatened them and demanded cash.

They eventually fled with a silver ladies Rolex watch and a white Blackberry mobile phone.

The women were left shaken but uninjured following their ordeal.

Detectives probing the aggravated burglary have now released an e-fit image of one of the gang members.

Witnesses to the raid, which happened between 7.30am and 7.50am on Friday December 14, can contact Det Con Jenna Potter at Grays CID on 101 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
