Witness appeal made in Whiteley burglary investigation

We are appealing for information after jewellery was stolen from a store at Whiteley Shopping Centre.

It took place around 1.40am on Wednesday 10 October.

Four males on two motorbikes arrived at the Pandora store and forced open the shutters and front door.

Several glass display cabinets were smashed and a quantity of jewellery was taken.

The four offenders then left in the direction of the nearby Tesco store.

All four people wore dark clothing and helmets.

An investigation is underway. It is not clear at this time the value of the items taken.

Police Staff Investigator Karen Slade said: “We are keen to hear from anyone who was in this area at the time and saw anything suspicious.

“We would also like to hear from anyone who remembers seeing motorbikes in this area around the time of the incident.”

Anyone with information should call police on 101, quoting reference number 44180380959.

Alternatively, people can call Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111, where information can be left anonymously.
