A 22-year-old has been arrested following a break-in at a Canterbury department store.

The man is being held on suspicion of burglary after he was found in Nasons at about 1.15am this morning.

The High Street store sells a range of cookware, furniture, gifts, and clothing, and has been a well-established part of town centre trade since 1962.

Police were called to the shop following reports a man had broken in through a skylight in the roof.

He was found inside the store by officers and arrested.

General manager Paul Tillman said: "He didn't do any more damage, other than the initial damage he caused by breaking in through a skylight. We don't know how he got onto the roof.

"The window has now been boarded up and is awaiting fixing properly."

Police spokesman Steve Knight confirmed the suspect is still being held in custody.
