DETECTIVES have released CCTV images of two men they want to speak to in connection with a spate of burglaries in the Grappenhall and Stockton Heath areas of Warrington.
Offenders attempted to gain entry to a shop and four houses in the Grappenhall and Stockton Heath areas of the town between 10pm on Saturday 17 April and 6am on Sunday 18 April.
Car keys were stolen from one of the houses and the incidents are believed to be linked.
Enquiries in relation to the incidents are ongoing and detectives want to hear from anyone who believes they may know who the men in the CCTV images are as they believe the pair will be able to help their investigation.
Detective Constable Ian Morris, of Warrington Local Policing Unit (LPU), said: “Thankfully, the only thing that was stolen were the car keys.
“However, being targeted by burglars is a very distressing experience, whether the incident occurs in your home or at your business premises.
“We are determined to establish who committed the offences in the Church Lane, Chester Road and Thelwall New Road areas of Grappenhall and the Victoria Road and Ellesmere Road areas of Stockton Heath and make them face the consequences of their actions.
“Enquiries are ongoing and I urge anyone who believes they may know the identities of the men in the CCTV images to contact us, as we believe that they will be able to help our investigation.
“I would also like to appeal directly to the men in the images, who were heard speaking with Liverpudlian accents, to get in touch.”
