An elderly woman confined to a wheelchair became the victim of the sixth robbery against senior citizens in the North since Friday.

A 100-year-old woman was left terrified after three thugs kicked down the door of her home as she slept, police confirmed today.

A distraught dog-owner today offered a £1,000 (€1,500) reward in a bid to hunt down burglars who killed his pet and dumped the bloodied body over a fence.
