Detectives investigating an attempted robbery of an elderly woman are appealing for witnesses.
On 4 October at about 14.50hrs, a 78-year-old woman was walking along Broomfield Avenue, close to the junction of Aldermans Hill, N13, when two men attempted to steal her handbag.
The woman managed to hold onto her handbag, but during the struggle she fell to the ground and hit her head.
The two men then left the scene along Broomfield Avenue, towards Pilgrim Close.
