A HUNT has been launched for two men who stole cars and bikes during two burglaries in Hampshire.

The men were seen pulling up outside Carzoopa in Totton in a white Transit van and forcing gates open before taking keys and stealing a dark grey Audi A4 S Line estate with a registration number beginning with SK10, along with a generator.

Shortly afterwards the same men broke into a neighbouring yard and stole power tools and four off-road motorbikes worth £4,000 in total.

The registration on the Ford van begins with NH63 but police have obscured it in the released photo.

PC Jason Andrews, said: “These incidents happened in the early evening and it is likely that the area was still busy with commuters making their way in and out of Totton.

"Were you in the area at the time and did you see anything suspicious?

"Did you see motorcycles being ridden in the area by someone not wearing protective headgear? 

"I would urge anyone with information, anyone who recognises the man in the CCTV or anyone who is offered any of the stolen items for sale, to contact us as soon as possible.”

Anyone with information can contact PC Andrews at Lyndhurst police station on 101.
