THIEVES stole an 89-year-old woman's money after they tricked their way into her flat last week.

Two men, both in their early 20s with short hair and grey suits, conned their way in by pretending they were fitting a washing machine in the flat next door, in Slough Lane, Kingsbury.

Once inside they took the cash from the pensioner's handbag, which was in a draw in the front room, before fleeing at around 4pm on Tuesday,June 9.

One suspect was around 5ft 6ins with fair hair, while the other was around 5ft 8ins tall with light brown hair.
