Appeal for information following burglary in Havant

We are appealing for information following a burglary at an address on Westways, Havant.

At approximately 2.25pm on Friday 8 July, a man knocked at the door at the address of a woman in her 90s and offered to do some building work. When the woman declined he then asked to use her toilet before stealing money from the property.

He left the area on foot in the direction of Havant Road.

• Aged between 30 and 50-years-old
• White with tanned skin
• Of medium to stocky build
• Thick, dark brown hair
• Clean shaven
