Burglary, Acorn Drive, in Meltham

Police in Huddersfield are appealing for information after bank cards stolen in a burglary in Meltham were used in Rochdale, Greater Manchester. 

Officers have released CCTV images in a hope that the public may be able to assist in identifying those responsible.

 

The cards were stolen in a burglary that took place between 8am and 8pm on Sunday the 19th of February, at an address on Acorn Drive, in Meltham. The victim returned home to discover the burglary, and on contacting her card issuer was told of a number of transactions that had already been made. The transactions on the cards took place at shops in Saddleworth and Rochdale. A vehicle is believed to have been present near to where the burglary occurred, and is described as a blue Skoda Fabia. 

 

Detective Constable Chris Eglan of Kirklees CID said; "Returning home to find you have been the victim of crime is understandably very upsetting and distressing. The victim swiftly contacted her card issuers, and was alarmed to find that her cards had already been used.

Anyone who has any information or anyone who may have seen anyone acting suspiciously around the Acorn Drive area is asked to contact police on 101.
