Police appeal for information following Congleton burglary

Cheshire Police are appealing for witnesses following a burglary in Congleton.

Sometime between 12.15pm on Tuesday 3 December two men wearing Hi-Viz vests over the top of their coats approached an address in Park Lane, removed a fence panel to gain access to the garden, and broke into the house.

They took various items including expensive coats and watches.

The two suspects may have parked a vehicle behind houses on the opposite side of the road which is accessible from Highcroft Avenue, as they were seen walking out of the ginnel (Park Bank) onto Highcroft and then crossing over Park Lane to get to the address.

PC Paul Fisher said:

“The property is near to the junction with Kennet Drive and it is a busy road so there may be dash cam footage or witnesses that may be useful for our investigation.

“If you saw anyone acting suspiciously in the area between 11.50am and 12.40pm on that day, or you were driving past and caught something on your dash cam, please contact us."

Anyone with information should contact Cheshire Police on 101 or via the website quoting IML 1976293.

Alternatively, information can be given anonymously by contacting Crimestoppers on:
