Police are appealing to find a key witness after a home was burgled.

The incident happened in the Cherry Garden Avenue area of Folkestone on May 17.

It is reported that between 1pm and 1.30pm a house was broken into and jewellery, wallets and a handbag were stolen and a window was smashed.

Officers attended following a call and searched the area with the help of a police dog.

The suspects were not located at the scene but four people have since been arrested as part of the ongoing investigation.

Police are now wanting to speak to a man who was walking a German shepherd in the area at the time, as they believe he may be able to help.

A spokesman for the force said: “The man, or anyone else who can help police, is urged to call 01843 222289 quoting reference 46/80823/24. You can also call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555111 or complete their online form.”
