Masked men in drugs raid at kids’ party
THREE knife-wielding masked raiders ruined a children’s birthday party when they burst into a house looking for drugs.
The thugs demanded cash and cannabis from the terrified parents.
Police believe they broke into the wrong address.
A boy was celebrating his 10th birthday when the trio charged through the back door and into the lounge on Friday evening.
His dad, 55, who asked not to be named, said: “We had just sung happy birthday and blown out the candles. The men were saying, ‘Where is the weed, where is the money?’
“We have been up all night just sitting on the sofa with a hammer.”
The men fled the house in Catton Grove, Norwich, with a mobile phone.
