Burglars strike twice in a week

4:49pm Thursday 18th January 2007 in Trowbridge By Andy Sambidge

A BUSINESS has fallen victim to thieves twice in the space of a week.

Burglars first smashed their way into an office on the White Horse Business Park, near Trowbridge, overnight on January 10/11 and escaped with Sony, Vaio and IBM laptop computers as well as a portable hard drive and laptop bags worth.

They returned exactly a week later and broke in overnight on January 17/18 and stole more laptops plus other electrical equipment. In total, the stolen goods are worth thousands of pounds, police say.

Officers in Trowbridge are appealing for witnesses to both incidents. If you saw anything suspicious, contact Pc Lee Pelling at Trowbridge Police Station on 0845 4087000.
