Police have released a CCTV image of two men they would like to speak to after an 88-year-old woman was tricked into paying £1,700 for some guttering work.
Three men went to the pensioner's home in South Stoke on the morning of Thursday, October 18, and persuaded her that she needed the repairs doing.

She was intimidated into agreeing to pay £1,700 for the work and withdrew the money from Lloyds Bank, in Moorland Road, before handing it over.

“A gutter is just where they belong! They are low life cowards that prey on the frail and weak! They should be 'taken aside' by REAL men and taught a lesson. Then it would be them 'praying' instead of preying!”
