A pensioner has been left feeling unsafe in his own home after burglars stole the cash he was saving to help his family pay for his funeral. John Jordan, 83, who has heart failure and lung disease, was hooked up to an oxygen machine and sleeping when the callous raiders broke in.
The great-grandad woke up to find his window had been forced open and the £1,500 he had painstakingly saved to spare his family the burden of his funeral costs was gone. The burglars had also taken the retired painter and decorator’s CCTV camera to cover their tracks.
Heartbroken John told the Sunday People : “I just don’t want to be in this house anymore. I don’t feel safe and this makes me angry. I struggle to sleep at night worrying they will come back.
