BOGUS callers have targeted a house in Eldene.

Three men, posing as electricity board officials, called at the house at about 2.40pm yesterday.

While one of the men kept the resident busy by switching lights on and off, the other two searched the house.

Police were unable to say what had been stolen at this stage.

The men are described as aged in their 20s. One was wearing all black and one was wearing a light-coloured jumper.

They may have been in a white van, which was spotted in the area.

Anyone with information can phone Swindon Police on 01793 528111.
