A burglar suffered pangs of conscience after coming face to face with a 91-year-old woman while prowling round her house.
So next day he got a florist to deliver a bunch of flowers and a note saying sorry.
The elderly woman, who lives in the Spring Hall area of Halifax, confronted the raider at 4am.
He fled empty-handed and next day sent the flowers and an apology, saying he thought the house was empty.
Detective Insp Tony Nicholson said: "I've never come across such behaviour during my time in the police.
"We appeal to this man to do the right thing and come forward."
