A pensioner was left badly shaken after being robbed in his own home.

The incident occurred in the early hours on Saturday ( June 6) when a 69-year-old man disturbed two men and a woman breaking into his home in Main Street, East Plean.

The three suspects subsequently threatened the 69-year-old and stole cash and jewellery from him.

Police are now appealing for information regarding this incident, and Detective Sergeant Scott Thomson said the victim was uninjured, but deeply upset at what had happened. “This was an appalling incident that has left the victim badly shaken,” he said.

“We are appealing for any information regarding this incident. Anyone who has any information, or saw anything suspicious on Saturday morning in the area, is asked to come forward.”
