Police are appealing for help after three laptop computers were stolen from Corsham Primary School on Thursday night.

A window at the school in Broadwood Avenue, Rudloe, was forced open and the thief, or thieves, took one Fujitsu and two Toshiba laptops.

All were black and all were security marked in a way which police have not revealed.

PC Tom Allen said: “We want anyone who saw anything suspicious, or who has been offered a laptop for sale they may have doubts about, to get in touch.

“The loss of these computers is not on a hindrance to the teachers who used them but, potentially, also to their pupils.”

Anyone with information should call the police on 101 and ask to speak to PC Allen, number PC2452.
