The hunt is on for a distinctive car after burglars were disturbed in Luton at 6.30am on Boxing Day.
Two offenders broke into a property in Stopsley through the front door but were disturbed by occupants of the house and made off.
One offender ran with a limp while making his escape and both got into a dark red/burgundy/maroon, old style Nova/Fiesta/Corsa with a distinctive black boot.
Call 101 in confidence.
