Wiltshire Police are reissuing an appeal for witnesses after a number of garages were broken into in Larkhill.

Police were called by a resident shortly after 7 am on Friday, November 11, reporting that multiple garages in McQueen Walk had been targeted, with several thousands of pounds worth of tools stolen.

Enquiries were carried out in the area, and a vehicle believed to have been used to carry out the burglaries was later located in the Roman Road area of Salisbury.

A man in his 30s from Bemerton Heath was arrested on suspicion of non-dwelling burglary and released on bail.

In a statement, Wiltshire Police said: "At the time of the incident, we issued an appeal for witnesses, and we are appealing again for anyone in the area to check their CCTV, doorbell cameras or dash cams for any relevant footage.

"We would also like people in the area to get in touch if they saw or heard any suspicious activity overnight on Thursday, November 10, and into the morning of November 11.

"In particular, we would like to hear from anyone who saw a blue car in the area that they had suspicions about.
