AN INTRUDER was tasered by police in mid-air as he dove head first through an upstairs window during a burglary in Hollywood.

Two thieves had raided the house on Cherry Walk just after 12am on June 20 after using a lock snapping tool to open the inner UPVC porch door.

The homeowners, who were away, had left the outer porch door open.

Police were called and entered the property hearing a noise upstairs.




One offender was in the main bedroom and upon seeing the officers, dove head first through the window smashing through both panes of glass.

Whilst in mid-air they were tasered,  fell on the flat roof and jumped down breaking through the next door neighbours fence.


One offender was wearing a balaclava and blue shorts with a white stripe down the leg.

It is unknown at this time what items have been taken.
