A BURGLAR was caught trying to climb through an open window in Botley.

The occupant woke up and saw two men running away across his garden.

It is thought the burglar had climbed up on to the conservatory to try to get into the house in Blossom Close.

Police are reminding residents not to leave windows and outside doors open in hot weather.

Anyone with information about the break-in, which happened just before 3am on Friday, should call Eastleigh CID on 101.
