    Police are appealing for information after a man tried to force his way into a home in Bolton while claiming to be a police officer.

    At 10.20pm on Wednesday 27 February the occupant of a home on Beverley Road, Heaton answered his door to a man.

    The man tried to force his way into the property, saying he was from the police.

    The occupant – who is in his 60s –managed to close the door, preventing the man from entering.

    Police believe it was an isolated incident but are urging residents to be vigilant.

    Detective Sergeant Robert Parker of GMP’s Bolton District said: “This was an unusual incident that has targeted a vulnerable member of the community.　

    “We are following various lines of enquiry and – while we believe this was an isolated occurrence – we would urge others to be mindful.　

    “We’re also appealing to anyone with information to contact police.”
