A woman in her 60’s was struck by her own car as it was stolen during a robbery in Horwich at the weekend as she ran outside for help.

She disturbed an unknown male inside her home on Church Street

Alongside the black Volkswagen T Roc (MA18 WZT), the woman’s handbag was also stolen.

The car has since been recovered.

The victim was taken to hospital where she remains with head, abdominal and leg injuries.

Inspector Deborah Hurst, of GMP’s Bolton district, said: “This was a horrific experience for the victim – we wish her well, hoping she makes a full recovery.

“Enquiries are ongoing but we are appealing for anyone with information to contact us.

“We are particularly interested in hearing from anyone with dash cam footage which shows the VW T Roc since it was stolen on Sunday evening”
