Police detectives are appealing for information following reports of an aggravated burglary at a home in Inkersall.

At around 11pm on Friday, March 3, three men broke into a house on Inkersall Green Road, while the owners were home.

A spokesperson for Derbyshire Constabulary said: “They pushed a woman to the floor, hit her and are believed to have squirted shampoo and bleach at her, before leaving with some items of jewellery. She did not suffer any serious injuries but was understandably distressed.”
