An elderly woman suffered a heart attack following a violent robbery at her home in Oldham.
Shortly before 5.45pm on Friday 18 August, police were called to reports of an aggravated burglary on Sedgemoor Way.
The offender forced his way through the victim’s front door after posing as a furniture collector.
The man pushed the 77-year-old woman to the floor before grabbing her handbag which contained cash and bank cards amongst other personal items.
The attacker then proceeded to kick the woman as she lay on the floor before fleeing her home.
The woman was taken to hospital where she was treated for bruising to her arm, elbow and ribs. She also suffered a heart attack and is said to be recovering.
