A woman has been threatened with a crowbar during a robbery at her home in Co Down.
Up to five intruders burst through her front door at around 9pm last night.
They held her down on a chair while they ransacked the house in Kilkeel Road, Hilltown, and escaped with a number of items.
The assailants were wearing balaclavas and gloves.
Police said the woman was left badly shaken and appealed for anybody who noticed anything suspicious to contact them.
