A YOUNG woman was terrified when she came face-to-face with a burglar in her own home in Padiham.
The 21-year-old had arrived home in Shakespeare Street about 3.30pm on Friday when she was confronted by an intruder.
He ran past her but the front door was locked so he was forced to flee through a rear entrance with a black Samsung mobile, a dark grey Siemens laptop, a lilac handbag and a purple crocodile effect leather purse.
The man was in his late 20s to early 30s, 5ft 4in to 5ft 9in, slim, with a dark coat or hooded top, dark trousers and white trainers.
DC Darren Davies said: “This was a particularly frightening ordeal .”
