Burglary Duo Wanted: CCTV Released

Police investigating an east London residential break-in have released these CCTV images of two suspected burglars.

In the early hours of Tuesday, September 22, last year police were called to reports of a burglary in Whalebone Lane North, Chadwell Heath.

Officers viewed CCTV captured the evening before on Monday, September 21 at 9.42pm and saw a man climb over a gate at the rear of the house.

The man then went to the rear of the house and was able to gain entry through on open window.

Once inside, he was able to open the front door and return with another man.

At 10.08pm the two men left the home with computer equipment and a drill worth over £700.

The two males are described as:

Suspect 1: A slim white man with short hair and a beard. He was wearing a long sleeved sports top and jeans. Ref 192371

Suspect 2: A larger built man than suspect 1, wearing a light coloured hooded top, trainers and dark gloves. He is seen with his hood up. Ref 192372

Police are keen to hear from anyone who recognises either of the suspects. They are also keen to hear from any witnesses.

Anyone with any information is asked to contact police on 101 quoting reference number 192371 (suspect 1) or 192372 (suspect 2) or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
