APPEAL AFTER CCTV FOOTAGE RELEASED BY DETECTIVES INVESTIGATING A BURGLARY ON FAIRMOUNT ROAD IN SALFORD

Officers were called around 11.55am on Wednesday 20 January 2021 to a report of two men behaving suspiciously on Fairmount Road, Salford. 

Extensive enquiries have since established that two men had gained entry to a house on the street by smashing a bi-fold patio door to the rear of the property.
 
Around ten minutes later the two men are then believed to have left the property via the front door carrying a duvet cover filled with items from the house. The men fled the scene via the property’s drive and then in an unknown direction.  
 
They are believed to have fled the scene in a dark coloured convertible Audi TT. 
 
When the owner of the property returned, they realised designer handbags, accessories, trainers and jewellery were all missing. 
 
Enquiries are ongoing and officers have released images of two men they would like to speak to in connection with the burglary. 
 
Detective Constable Gareth Bannister of GMP’s Salford district said:
