POLICE today appealed for witnesses after a 25-year-old woman was attacked and injured in a robbery in her own home.
The woman suffered bruising and was left extremely shaken after being attacked in Blyford Way, Felixstowe, just before 3.30pm on Saturday.
She had just returned home and was taking items inside when she was pushed over just inside her front door.
A man wearing a black hooded top with a scarf partially over his face pushed past her and then began to search her home. The woman attempted to dial 999 but was again assaulted by the man.
He then fled the property. A pink iPod appear to have been the only item stolen, but damage was also caused inside the premises.
