DETECTIVES are hunting two men after a “frightening” raid on a home in Bishop’s Waltham.
The offenders forced their way into a flat in The Hawthorns, Marlow Road, on Wednesday (May 29).
They demanded money from the occupants, a man and a woman in their 20s, before leaving the address.
Detective Sergeant Paul Southey said: “This was frightening for the victims but thankfully no one was hurt. I would like to reassure local residents that this appears to have been a targeted incident.”
Police are appealing for witnesses to the burglary, which happened just before 9.30pm.
Officers say one of the suspects had his face covered, while the other had fair hair and was wearing a grey hooded top.
Anyone with information is asked to contact Winchester CID by phoning 101. Mini-Com users can call the police on 18001 101. Information can be given anonymously by calling Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
