Appeal launched after burglars steal Christmas decorations from Ilkeston home

Police Officers are appealing for information after burglars stole a box of Christmas decorations from a home in Ilkeston.

Either two or three men, all dressed in black clothing and with face coverings on, broke into a flat in Cotmanhay Road, Ilkeston, at around 3:00am on Saturday 24th May.

They stole a set of festive decorations from inside the property before running away from the scene.

Local police officers believe they then got into a dark coloured VW Passat which was driven at speed towards Beauvale Drive, and are now appealing for any witnesses to the crime, or anyone who saw the vehicle leaving the scene, to please come forward and contact us.

Of particular interest is anyone who has Ring doorbell or dashcam footage that covers Cotmanhay Road or Beauvale Drive and has not already spoken to officers.

Anyone with information is asked to contact Derbyshire Police via any of the following contact routes, quoting incident number 25*300296. 

You can also anonymously contact the independent charity CrimeStoppers, on 0800 555 111, or by visiting the CrimeStoppers website.
