Three robbers held a 90-year-old woman captive as they looted her home in Tyrone, the Police Service of Northern Ireland said this morning.
The raiders pushed her back into the house at Sixmilecross in Co Tyrone, Northern Ireland, after she opened her front door last night.
Police said one of the men restrained her while the other two ransacked the Fellagherin Road property. They escaped with an undisclosed sum of cash, and detectives in Omagh have urged any witnesses to ontact them.
Although the pensioner was not physically hurt, a PSNI spokesman said she was badly shaken by the ordeal.
