Woman’s heartache after grandparents’ home is broken into and trashed with family heirlooms stolen

A woman has spoken of her heartache after her grandparents’ home in Hyde was broken into and trashed and family heirlooms were stolen.

Becky Griffiths, 32, who grew up in Ashton-under-Lyne and Dukinfield, said thieves broke into her grandparents' home on Read Street in Hyde and "absolutely trashed" the property. They stole a number of items, including two white BMW cars, jewellery and a tuba.

The incident occurred in the early hours of Saturday (28 May) while Becky's grandparents, Jimmy and Jean Griffiths, both 76, were away for the night. Thieves tried to force their way in through the front door and smashed the windows to access the property.
