MASKED thieves broke into a Warsash house and stole several high-value items.

A gang of five men were involved in a break-in at a house in Brooke Avenue.

Designer bags, belts, jewellery, watches, and cash were taken from the property on November 24.

The group is believed to have left the scene of the burglary on foot via the Warsash shoreline, possibly in the direction of Shore Road, whilst carrying bags of stolen goods.

Daily Echo:

Now officers investigating the incident are asking people to contact them immediately if they are offered a sale of jewellery or designer items in “suspicious circumstances.”

A spokesperson from Hampshire police said: “We are keen to hear from anyone who saw the two men pictured walking down the Ferry House Lane footpath toward the shoreline, and possibly back towards Shore Road.

“Did you see where they went? Did they enter a vehicle, or perhaps use a boat? Have you captured these men on any CCTV footage in the area?

“We appreciate their faces are covered, but we would also like to hear from anyone who knows the people pictured. Perhaps you recognise their clothing.”

Anyone with information is asked to contact police on 101, quoting 44220477752.
