Two men who forced their way into a mum’s home and threatened her at knifepoint while she was carrying her baby are being sought by police.
The 22-year-old woman was at her home in Wandsworth, south London, just after 1pm on Tuesday when the two men knocked on her front door and forced their way in.
She was forced into the kitchen at knifepoint by a man wearing a Tesco jacket, who demanded money before they both fled.
There were no reports of injuries and nothing was taken.
Detectives from South West Command Unit have released images of the two men in the hope of identifying them.
Police said they will conduct extra searches in the area to reassure people.
Detective Sergeant Cerith Jones, investigating, said: ‘The community will be appalled by this awful incident and I know many people will want to reach out and help us identify them.
