A woman was robbed at knifepoint and her engagement ring stolen by a burglar pretending to be an Amazon delivery man.
The incident took place at a property on Osbourne Road, Hyde at around 5.50pm, just before Christmas.
The victim was at home when a man knocked on her door and shouted ‘Amazon’, believing him to be delivering a parcel the victim opened the door.
Once the door had been opened the suspect forced his way inside, pulled out a pen knife and demanded that the victim hand over her jewellery.
The suspect was able to steal a valuable engagement ring and a watch before making off in an unknown direction.
Police are now appealing for anyone with information to come forward and support their investigation.
Anyone with dashcam, Ring doorbell or CCTV footage is urged to contact police on 0161 856 0120, quoting the log 2735 of 22/12/23.
Alternatively, you can contact the independent charity, Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555 111.
