A woman whose autistic son was held at knifepoint during an aggravated burglary in Waterford says they're scared to be at home now.

Evelyn's house in Ballybeg was broken into by two men last Friday evening, between 7 and 8pm.

They took jewellry that she says wouldn't be worth any money but is of huge sentimental value to her.
