Two burglars were disturbed after an alarm was activated at an elderly people's home in Benfleet.
It is not believed anything was stolen from Woodman Mews in Rayleigh Road, but damage was caused by the attempted break-in.
Damage to the premises was about £100.
One of the culprits was black, the other Asian - both were in their late twenties, with short cropped hair, and wore navy sports clothes.
Anyone with any information on this should contact police on 01268 756221.
