DETECTIVES are appealing for information from the public following two burglaries in Latchford and Stockton Heath yesterday (Wednesday) which they believe could be linked.
At some time between 10.45am and 12.15pm offenders broke into an address on Marbury Street, Latchford, through a bedroom window. A search of the bedroom was made but no items were stolen.
Officers believe the burglars may have been disturbed when the occupant returned to the address.
The second burglary took place at a house on Ellesmere Road, Stockton Heath, between 8.30am and 7.45pm. The offenders entered the property from the kitchen window and ransacked the rooms.
A number of items were taken including a large TV.
Enquiries in relation to both burglaries, which detectives believe could be linked, are ongoing.
As part of their enquiries detectives are urging anyone with any information or footage that may help with the investigation to get in touch.
Detective Constable David Gerrard, from Warrington Local Policing Unit, said: “Burglary is a serious offence in which victims are targeted in their own home, the one place everybody should be able to feel most safe.
“I would like to reassure the community that we are doing everything we can to find those responsible.
“In the meantime I am encouraging anyone who may have information or CCTV footage of anyone acting suspiciously in these areas to come forward.
“We believe the burglars are likely to have fled in a car and therefore I would like to hear from anyone who may have noticed a suspicious vehicle nearby to get in touch.”
If you have any information please contact Cheshire Police on 101 quoting IML 859756 in relation to the burglary in Stockton Heath and IML 859721 for the burglary in Latchford.
