Burglar MEN who attempted to burgle a house fled when the homeowner was woken by a security app on his phone. Bolton Crown Court heard how Christopher Clementson was asleep at his home in Runfield Close, Leigh on March 5 last year when he was woken at 12.40am. A notification on his phone had been sent to him by his home security system, said Daniel Calder, prosecuting. When he got out of bed and looked through a window he saw a male dressed in grey standing in his garden. Mr Clementson then also saw two other men running away towards a silver BMW and when he checked his property he found that the patio door handle had been damaged.
