    Detectives have released images of items stolen in a burglary from a house in Westminster.

    Police were called to St John’s Wood at 17:09 on 18 January following reports of a burglary.

    It was reported that the victim had answered a knock at the door, believing it to be a delivery driver.

    Three men then barged their way into the property and threatened both the victim and two young children with large knives.

    They then demanded to be taken to the safe which they emptied of jewellery – valued at around £800,000 – before fleeing the scene in the victim’s car.

    Handbags, high value watches and mobile phones were also stolen from the address.

    No injuries were reported and the car was later recovered nearby.

    Officers are now releasing images of some of the jewellery stolen in the burglary and are appealing for anyone with information on the items to get in touch.
