Ringmaster - News release - Have you seen these medals?

4th January 2012.

Police investigating two burglaries in Sandy on Christmas Day, December 25, are asking the public for help.

The two burglaries took place at neighbouring properties in Windsor Way during the afternoon and are believed to be linked.

The offender has gained entry through the windows at the rear of both properties and has taken jewellery and cash before leaving the scene.

Three World War Two campaign medals have also been taken from one of the properties and DC Barry Kibble, investigating, is keen to trace anyone who has been offered any of these items for sale.

He said: “The campaign medals are very easy to identify and are of sentimental value to the victim who will not be able to replace them. It is possible that someone is trying to sell these items to unsuspecting members of the public. I would ask anyone who has been approached by someone offering items like this for sale to come forward and speak to the police, in confidence.”

Anyone with information about this crime can contact DC Kibble, in confidence, on 01234 275212, or Bedfordshire Police on 101, or text information to 07786 200011.

Alternatively, contact the independent charity Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555 111, or online at crimestoppers-uk.org.
