Pair threaten man and steal cash after forcing their way into Telford home
Two men forced their way into a property in Telford on Wednesday before threatening the occupant and stealing cash.
The incident happened on Seven Hills Place in Ketley at around 9.30am.
They stole cash from a bedroom before making the occupant, a man in his 60s, drive them to a cash machine at Furrows Garage, Haybridge Roundabout in Wellington.
Once at the cash machine, the victim gave one of the suspects his bank card with a false pin number, before going into a local shop and calling the police.
The suspects then left the location on foot in the direction of Hadley.
The first suspect is described as a mixed-race man, between 23 to 27 years old, approximately 5'8" and of a slim build. He was described as wearing a blue hooded top.
The second suspect is described as a black man, who was taller than the other male. He was described as being of a large athletic build, and had short dark hair, a beard and a moustache.
Detective Constable Paul Drury, who is leading the investigation, said: "This was a frightening incident for the victim and a thorough investigation is now underway to identify those responsible. We believe this to be an isolated incident, and would urge anyone who witnessed it to please call us on 101, quoting incident number 159S of 28 September 2016."
