A 20-year-old man has been charged in connection with an aggravated burglary at a care home in Shakespeare Close, Barkerend, Bradford, which left a 94-year-old woman in hospital with severe head injuries.

The man, who was due to appear before Bradford Magistrates’ Court today, also faces a number of other offences.

A West Yorkshire Police spokesman said the injured pensioner remained in a stable condition at Bradford Royal Infirmary today.
