As reported by Birmingham Live, the footage shows a man with his face covered walk up to the mum's Tigley Avenue address around 4.43am on August 29 before covering the door's camera with his hand.

They are dressed in a light hoody wearing trainers, black gloves, a balaclava and a bag.Another person appears in the shot shortly after when the man walks back down the drive.A separate camera shows the masked pair.
