PC praised for taking on two violent burglars
A YORKSHIRE police officer has been commended for bravery for tackling two burglars in a violent struggle in which he was injured.
West Yorkshire officer PC Barry Hartley arrived at the scene alone, saw an intruder and followed him into the house where a second burglar was waiting.
PC Hartley detained Bradford father-of-four Richard Andrew but his accomplice got away with jewellery belonging to a deceased relative and a selection of gallantry and service medals.
