The break-in took place between 8.10 and 8.15pm on January 30 at a property in Edinburgh Road.

Police are appealing for witnesses after a home was broken into in Newmarket.

Two offenders are said to have attempted to enter the property through the patio before climbing on a garage roof and forcing a window open.

When the offenders were inside they wke up an occupant and asked them where their property was.

They searched a box but left empty handed and left by the same window.

The occupant was left unharmed.

Descriptions have been given of the men thought to be involved.

They are described as white, in their 20s and five foot 10 inches and five foot six inches in height.

They were wearing black clothing and black peaked caps, possibly baseball caps, and scarves covering their faces at the time.

Officers would like to speak those who may have seen something that evening or who may have captured dash cam footage in the Edinburgh Road, Hamilton Road, Princess Way or Manderston Road area on January 30 between 7.45 and 8.30pm.

Alternatively, anyone who witnessed the incident or has any knowledge of it is asked to contact West CID on 101 quoting reference 5790/18 or call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555111.
