TWO "sneak-in" burglaries at the houses of elderly people in Belvedere Road, Burnley, are being linked by police.
Two men walked into the bungalows through unlocked doors at about 3.30pm, yesterday, and stole £105 cash and wallets.
The first man was described as white, 5ft 8ins, with dark hair, in his early 20s, wearing a long-sleeved yellow jumper with writing on the front.
The second man was 6ft, in his 30s, with a moustache and going bald at the front.
DS Peter Simm said: "Both elderly occupants were in their houses at the time and one of the men actually laughed at one of the victims.
"We are treating these incidents very seriously and would like any information to assist us."
