Crook tries to con pensioner

A crook tried to con his way into a pensioners' home by posing as a gas man.
The man claiming to be from Siemens Gas knocked on the door of a house in Dean Drive, Stanmore, at 3.45pm on Friday (December 19).
The 70-year-old owner did not let him as he had no ID card. The con artist then drove off in a white van towards Holly Avenue.
