CCTV appeal after copper is stolen during Ashington burglary

An investigation is under way after a burglary in Northumberland.

Shortly after 9.15am on May 11, police received a report of a burglary on Moorhouse Lane, Ashington.

It was reported that those responsible had gained entry to the site by climbing through a window before stealing copper piping and a sink and fleeing the scene.

Police have now released CCTV images of a man and a woman they think could help them with their enquiries.

A spokesperson for Northumbria Police said: "An investigation has been launched to locate those responsible and police have now identified a man and woman who they would like to speak to in connection with the burglary.

"They were both in the area at the time of the offence and could have information that can assist officers.

"The man or woman, or anyone who knows them, is asked to contact police on 101 quoting reference 052180D/20 or by using the ‘Tell Us Something’ page of our website."
