Police investigating a string of shoplifting incidents at a store in Swindon are appealing for the public’s help in identifying a man they would like to speak to as part of their enquiries.
Over a period of 24 months, 15 incidents of shoplifting have been committed at Wilko’s in the town centre, which we believe are all linked.
Approximately £2,400 worth of items have been stolen during these incidents including DIY items, stationary, homeware etc.
On each occasion, the offender removes security tags and conceals the items before leaving the store without making any attempt to pay.
The man is described as black, aged in his mid 30s, of medium build. He always wears a face mask.
Anyone with information should call 101 and quote crime reference number 54200109787. Alternatively, call CrimeStoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
