A woman who was hit over the head and had money stolen has been left shaken through the whole ordeal.

It was reported that a woman had been attacked from behind and suffered cuts to her face and her hand.

She had just returned home from work and as she reached her front door she was struck to the head and fell to the floor. Money that she was carrying was taken. 

Paramedics attended her home and a short time later she was taken to Kings Mill Hospital for treatment.

Police Constable Lisa Shields is leading the investigation. She said: "We are working hard to establish the full circumstances of this incident and checking CCTV footage as part of our ongoing enquiries.

"The victim is clearly very distressed and shook-up following the incident.
