Traumatised by theft

TWO Hampton Park residents have been left traumatised after a man broke into their house and threatened them at knifepoint last week.
The offender broke into the Pound Road home around 8am on Thursday 30 October where he threatened the male occupant, 21, and female occupant, 23, with a knife and forced them into a bedroom, before stealing money from the house and fleeing.
The offender was last seen running south along Bride Avenue in Hampton Park about 8.15am.
He is described as roughly 185 centimetres tall, with a solid build, and was wearing black pants and a black hoody pulled over his head at the time.
The occupants were uninjured during the robbery.
