Burglars were scared off by the homeowners as they tried to break into a Kenilworth home through a first-floor window.

Two people tried to break into the back of a house on Leamington Road on Thursday (February 6) at around 6.30pm.

Having been unable to get in through the conservatory door, they climbed on to the roof and then smashed a window to get in.

"Offenders were disturbed by the occupants and ran away," a Kenilworth Safer Neighbourhood Team statement said.

"Entry was not gained into the property.

"Did you see/hear anything? / Do you have CCTV/digital footage?

"If you have information relating to the above offence, please call/email Kenilworth Safer Neighbourhood Team."
