England cricket captain Ben Stokes says “masked” burglars broke into his home while his wife and two children were present and stole his OBE among numerous other personal items. Stokes was in Pakistan on England duty when his house in the Durham village of Castle Eden was broken into on the evening of October 17. Describing the break-in on his personal social media account, Stokes also posted pictures of items stolen from his home.
“By far the worst thing about this crime is that it was carried out whilst my wife and two young children were in the house. “Thankfully, none of my family came to any physical harm. Understandably, however, the experience has had an impact on their emotional and mental state. “All we can think about is how much worse this situation could have been.” Stokes said he was releasing photographs of some of the stolen items, which he hopes are easily identifiable, in the hope of finding the culprits.
