An elderly man was threatened with a screwdriver after three men broke into his house in Rochdale last week.
Shortly after 6.20pm on Monday 17 August 2015, three men broke into the house of the 79-year-old on Norford Way in Rochdale.

The offenders, described as three white men, stole a number of items including jewellery and money.
