Detectives investigating burglary in Great Broughton appeal for information

Detectives investigating a burglary at a house in Great Broughton are appealing for information from members of the public.

Between 9pm and 9.15pm on Monday 30 August a man has forced his way into a house on Whitchurch Road.

He searched the property and stole jewellery and a black Radley handbag before fleeing the scene on foot.

The man is described as white, of a slim build and approximately 5’8” to 5’10” tall. He was wearing blue jeans, a dark jacket and a dark coloured baseball cap along with a face covering.

Detective Constable Karina Monks, of Chester CID, said: “The occupants were at home when the burglar forced his way inside and although unharmed they have understandably been left shaken.

“We have been following numerous lines of enquiry and I am keen to hear from anyone who may have information that could assist with the investigation.

“If you saw a man in the area who matches the description or have CCTV or dash cam footage that could prove useful please get in touch.

“I am also encouraging residents to check their gardens to see if the handbag has been discarded. If you find it please contact police.”

Anyone who has information and can assist police with their enquiries is asked to contact Cheshire Constabulary on 101 quoting IML 1073598.

Information can also be provided anonymously by calling Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
