Elderly Lady Left Shaken after Suspicious Incident in Hartlepool A 74 year old lady was left shaken though physically unharmed after a masked man came into her home in Hartlepool and brandished a knife. The lady was in her kitchen at around 6pm on Friday (7th December) awaiting a family members visit when she was confronted by the man in her hallway. He was wearing a black jacket, black trousers and shoes and a grey and black camouflage hood or balaclavamask covering his face. The man pulled out a a large kitchen style knife and held to towards her. The lady then shouted out for help and the suspect told her not to shout out and that it was only a prank to scare people like you can see on the internet. The man left her address and ran off towards the King Oswy Shops. Officers conducted an area search but unfortunately could not locate the suspect. Anyone with information about the person responsible is asked to contact DC Holly Angus via the 101 number quoting Event 223494.
