BURGLARS made off with dozens of treasured photos of a baby boy, leaving his parents with just two pictures.
As reported in the Daily Echo, burglars smashed their way into Matt and Ceri Rollinson's home in Redlands Road, Fareham, making off with a laptop, Xbox and Wii games consoles, two digital cameras, a video camera, jewellery and about £200 in cash.
The Compaq laptop contained photos of the couple's 11-month-old son Samuel, as well as pictures of their honeymoon, holidays and family events.
Burglars broke into the house by smashing a double-glazed kitchen window with a rock. After rifling through every room, they fled through the patio doors.
Golf centre manager Matt, 32, said: "I don't really care about the value of all the things that were taken, they can all be replaced. But we can't replace those pictures.
"There are photos from the hospital, back here at home, his first Christmas, his whole first year - he's our first child and none of those can be replaced.
"We've only got two pictures of Sam left now."
The burglary happened between 4pm and 10pm on Saturday.
