BURGLARS made off with £900 after breaking into a home in Haileybury Gardens, Hedge End, and forcing a metal money box.
Police said the raiders first broke into a shed and used a spade to force open a kitchen window.
Once inside they searched all rooms in the home.
The householder was left with a £200 repair bill for damage to the window frame and £20 damage to a padlock.
