Ladders in the news

The quick thinking actions of a homeowner may have prevented his flat in Manchester's Northern Quarter from being burgled.

The concerned man had called 999 when he saw ladders against his window, thinking it was attempt to break in.

While he was on the phone, he saw two people stop to talk to the potential thieves below and quickly pulled their ladders up in through his apartment window. Police are now investigating the incident which happened at around 11.30pm on Tuesday night.
