At around 7.20pm on Friday 15 November, police in Alderley Edge responded to reports of a burglary on Marlborough Avenue.

The caller reported that an unknown number of individuals had forcibly gained access to the property, using a neighbour's ladder to reach an exterior window, smashing it, and climbing inside.

Once inside the address, the individuals conducted an untidy search of the property and stole a number of jewellery items before fleeing the scene.

"To have one's home broken into and have their personal property stolen is very distressing and the victim has been left considerably shaken by this ordeal.

"We are asking anyone who was in the Marlborough Avenue area of Alderley Edge around the time of the incident and saw anything suspicious to get in contact.

"The same goes for anyone who has any useful information, CCTV or dashcam footage."
