Second robbery traumatises vice-principal

This is the second time the woman has had her home broken into.

A SECOND home invasion has left  Margate Primary vice-principal Lucille Garritson  traumatised.

Ms Garritson woke shortly before 4am on Wednesday this week to the sound of a window shattering at her Uvongo townhouse.

This is the second attack Ms Garritson has suffered in a matter of weeks.

According to a reliable source, when Ms Garritson heard the glass break, she locked herself in the bathroom.

The intruders ransacked her home and fled with several items.

An official police statement is awaited.

During the first break-in last month, Ms Garritson was stabbed after two men broke through the security doors at the back of her townhouse.  A neighbour heard her screams and rushed to her assistance. The men fled.
