They say that at around 9pm on Wednesday, September 11 two men approached a property in the road, wearing tracksuits and black gloves.

They were also wearing vests which had a similar appearance to clothing sometimes worn by police officers. They left shortly after.

The incident is being linked to a previous report of suspicious behaviour in the same road, on Friday, August 23, when just after 1.30am, two suspects wearing balaclavas attempted to steal a car but left empty-handed.

Police have issued images and would like to hear from anyone who can identify those pictured.

Anyone with information is asked to call police on 01622 604100, quoting reference 46/145895/24.
