Stolen jewellery has been returned to a Willesborough pensioner who did not realise it had even been stolen.

She was reunited with her gold after police arrested a man and recovered a charm bracelet, a gold chain bracelet, a gold chain necklace with gold chain pendant, a pair of clip on gold earrings and a gold neck chain.

The thefts happened on March 4.

A man has been charged with burglary in connection with the incident and remanded in custody awaiting a court appearance.
