Gendarmes have opened an investigation after a burglary followed by the confinement of an 87-year-old woman in Sioniac, near Beaulieu-sur-Dordogne. On Sunday evening, the victim was reportedly held in her bedroom for about fifteen minutes before she managed to alert her neighbours. Twenty euros were allegedly stolen from her. Another burglary was committed two kilometres away, in Bilhac, and gendarmerie crime-scene investigators went to both locations.
