CCTV appeal after attempted burglary at Denaby Main shop

It was reported that an unknown man had climbed some fencing to get into the grounds of a premises on Doncaster Road between 10.30pm on August 24 and 12.10am on August 25. 

Police said the man spent time trying to smash through the tiled roof of an attached garage without success before leaving, but returned a short time later. This time, using a handheld grinder, he tried to remove metal bars around the windows, again unsuccessfully.

"A short time later, a neighbouring shop was reportedly broken into through the roof and a quantity of cash was taken," said a police spokesperson.

"Officers believe the same man was involved."

Do you recognise him? He is described as white, approximately 5ft 9in tall and wearing a distinctive jacket with a logo on the left arm.
