Car during Loughborough burglary
Officers are appealing for public help after a car was stolen during a burglary in Loughborough.
The burglary took place sometime between 10.30am and 6.30pm yesterday (Tuesday June 23, 2009) at a home on Clawson Close.
The property was entered and a number of items were stolen including paperwork and documents and a Compaq V5000 laptop.
At around 4.35am this morning (Wednesday June 24, 2009), the victim was woken by a noise outside and upon investigating saw his vehicle, a blue Vauxhall Omega registration number YD52 LKC, being driven off his driveway.

I would like to appeal to anyone who saw the car being stolen or perhaps knows of its whereabouts now to contact us.
Alternatively, if anyone has any information regarding the burglary or can recall any suspicious activity in the area that could be linked to this incident please get in touch with us.
