A 93-YEAR-OLD woman was duped into letting a burglar posing as a water board official into her Ledbury home.
The man called at the Queens Court property between 4.30 and 4.45pm on Friday carrying an ID-type photograph card.
He asked the householder to turn on the taps and while she was doing so, he searched her home and stole cash.
He is described as a white male, aged about 30, thin build, approximately 5ft 3inches tall, with a moustache. He was wearing a black crew neck jumper, black trousers and training shoes.
