"The group, believed to be three or four men, were all wearing black clothing and balaclavas. They arrived at the scene in a dark hatchback vehicle and fled in the direction of woodland.”
Detectives investigating the burglary are keen to speak to any witnesses, particularly anyone who may have captured the group or the vehicle on CCTV, doorbell, or dashboard camera.
