Two hide from house raiders

TWO Pakenham residents were forced to hide in a cupboard while their house was burgled and ransacked on Saturday.
The occupants of a John Street unit hid after two men kicked their front door open about 3am. The men then ransacked the house.
Police said when the occupants came out of the cupboard they found a number of items missing. Police will interview two 37yearold men from the Frankston area about the incident.
