Detectives are appealing for information and witnesses following a burglary in the Dundonald area.

Detective Sergeant Westbury said: “Police received a report at approximately 11.15pm on Saturday, 17th February that a house had been broken into in the Coopers Mill Close area of the town.

“We believe the house was entered between 7pm and 8.30pm on Saturday. Access was gained via the rear of the property and a number of rooms inside the house had been ransacked. The garden shed was also opened and searched.

“Thankfully, no one was inside the property at the time of the burglary, and enquires are ongoing at this time to determine exactly what was taken.

“We would appeal to anyone who was in the area on Saturday between 7pm and 8.30pm and noticed anything suspicious, or out of the ordinary, to make contact with police on 101, quoting reference 1872 17/02/24.

“We would also be especially keen to hear from anyone who may have dash-cam, CCTV or mobile footage of the areas during these times that we could review.”
