A PARKDALE woman returning home saw a man and a woman carrying bags out her driveway. Thinking they were going door-to-door the woman parked her car and then realised her front door was open.
The offenders ran off along Eighth St, while the woman rang her son and police.
They believe the thieves used a ladder to climb up and jemmy open a bathroom window, breaking the chain off the window frame.
The offenders stole a probationary licence from the son’s bedroom, three laptops and an iPad from a study, and jewellery and perfume from the main bedroom. They left via the front door where they were spotted by the victim.
Anyone with information should call Mordialloc police, 9588 2988.
