A burglar posed as a doctor to enter a retirement village and steal cash from an elderly resident.
The woman let the man into her room at Dannemora Gardens Retrement Village yesterday afternoon because he told her he was a doctor.
Police were notified of the break-in at 1.55pm. The man appeared to be in his 30s and was wearing a green jacket and green backpack.
"He didn't hurt or touch her. He just said he was a doctor and made off with some money," a police spokeswoman said.
