A burglar gained access to a couple's home in a village near Lutterworth and stole handbags and a wallet from inside.
An appeal has now been issued by police investigating the theft in Wibtoft, just off the A5 between Lutterworth and Hinckley.
Warwickshire Police say the couple were approached in their home in Council Houses at around 4pm on Saturday, June 29, by a man who claimed to be delivering a birthday present.
The couple mistakenly thought they knew him and let him in the house, where he helped himself to two handbags and a wallet, containing cash and cards, before leaving in the direction of the A5.
The man is described as being white, 5ft 10in tall, of athletic build and aged between 16 and 17.
He had short brown hair and was wearing blue and white shorts and a casual shirt.
