CRUEL thieves stole a vulnerable mother's mobility scooter from her home, trapping her indoors. 

The callous robbers struck at the Bridgeton woman's home on Friday afternoon. 

Her daughter Lauren Tait is urging anyone who may know anything about the whereabouts of her mother's scooter to get in touch. 

She said: "This is the only thing I can get my mum out on, this is her freedom."

Lauren added that the crooks nicked the scooter from James Street at around 3pm last week. 

Police Scotland was approached for comment.
