Mum-of-22 Sue Radford has revealed her family suffered a scary break-in last week.

Sue Radford has revealed that her family's home in Lancashire was targeted by thieves who stole a train from their son's grave.

Taking to her YouTube channel, the mum-of-22 explained that a pair of intruders tried to break into the house, but soon fled when their daughter’s Millie, 18, and Chloe, 24, caught them.

45-year-old Sue said their family dog Lola alerted them that something was wrong when she started barking and wouldn't stop.

Husband Noel, 49, then received a phone call from Millie, who said she could hear someone outside her bedroom.

As Millie ran downstairs and turned the kitchen light on, she said she caught them jumping back over the fence into the garden.

Sue then explained that the suspected criminals were seen running down the garden path where they got into a black car which drove off with its doors open.
