Jorgie's Terrifying Experience
Jorgie Porter has shared the harrowing moment when armed robbers attempted to break into her home while her baby son was fast asleep. The 36-year-old actress first disclosed the frightening incident last year by posting CCTV images in an effort to identify the culprits.
Stella to the Rescue
Porter credited their Doberman named Stella for thwarting the break-in attempt. Jorgie and her fiancé Ollie Piotrowski were alerted when Stella began barking, prompting them to check their security cameras. To their shock, they saw masked intruders trying to gain entry into their home.
Security Measures and Support
The Hollyoaks star emphasized the crucial role their dog played in scaring off the intruders. Following the incident, they reinforced security measures and even considered getting another dog due to Stella's impressive response. The targeted attack involved the removal of their alarm system and cutting of cables.
A Community Effort
After the ordeal, Porter and Piotrowski had friends and relatives stay with them for added security. Concerned about potential return threats, they sought support from the police for extra protection. Jorgie expressed gratitude for the authorities' assistance during the unsettling time.
