Woman threatened during robbery in Antrim
Police are hunting a teenager who threatened a woman at knife point as he tried to steal her television in Antrim.

The youngster forced his way into the woman's house in Dunamoy Drive while she was out on Friday afternoon.

But when she returned home at about 3.20pm and discovered the intruder trying to take the television, he drew a knife.

The culprit, believed to be in his late teens, then fled on foot empty-handed, police said.

The woman was shaken but unhurt.

Police said the teenager was around 5' 8" tall, of slim build and had "an unnaturally pale complexion".

He was wearing a white zipped-up hooded top and black tracksuit bottoms at the time.

They have appealed for information.
