A ROBBER disguised as a postman and two accomplices tied a woman up while they raided her home for cash.

The bogus postman knocked at the house in Halton View, Widnes, grabbed her face and forced her inside.

The gang made her follow them upstairs where they tied her hands behind her back while they rummaged for cash.

The robbers left through the front door and made their escape towards Watkinson Way.

All three had Liverpool accents.

Anyone with any information about the incident which took place at around 2.30pm last Wednesday should call Runcorn CID on 01244 613936 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555111.
