Two men who carried out a terrifying attempted robbery that caused the death of a woman at her home in Leeds have been jailed after being convicted of her manslaughter.

Samuel Hanrahan, 20, and Jerry Hanrahan, 18, targeted the family home of 64-year-old Nhi Muoi Wai in Millside Walk, Morley, on March 28 this year.

Jerry Hanrahan, who was armed with a large screwdriver, smashed a front window of the house as the pair continued to make demands for the keys.

The two men fled empty-handed when they were told the police had been called.

Mrs Wai, who was a mother of six and a grandmother and was generally known as Kim, collapsed from the shock of the ordeal in front of her son and daughter.

Mrs Wai, was treated at the scene by ambulance staff before being rushed to hospital, where it was confirmed that she had suffered a massive stroke. Her condition continued to deteriorate and she was pronounced dead later that day.
