Acting Det Serg Mitchell Lockey, said: “A family were threatened by Green and his accomplices.
“Everyone should feel safe in their homes but the events of that day will stay with them.
“It is only right that Green is beginning a lengthy prison sentence. Hopefully, with the help of the public, those who were also involved will be caught and share his fate.”
Enquiries continue to identify the other suspects.
Anyone with any information relating to the burglary should call police on 101 quoting reference Cad 3728/11Oct19.
