Detective Sergeant Crothers said: “It was reported just after 11.30pm that a property had been broken into in the Bute Gardens area by two masked men, armed with a hammer. The male home owner managed to escape, thankfully with no injuries, but is understandably very shaken up by the incident.

“The two suspects are believed to have made off via the rear of the property in the direction of Killyglen Road with a sum of cash.
