A 77-year-old woman suffered the shock of her life last night when four men barged into her home in Xaghra, Gozo, demanded cash, and ran off with less than €400.

The case happened in Guzeppi Bajada Street at about 1.15 a.m.

No one was injured but the woman is being treated for shock.

A magisterial inquiry is under way.
