Police
investigate break-in at Burnham-On-Sea games shop
Police
carried out house-to-house enquiries in the centre of Burnham-On-Sea
on Thursday (February 9th) following an overnight break-in at
a computer games shop in the town.
A
forensics team was called to Insane Games in Cross Street after
blood stains were found near to two windows that were smashed
during the raid.
The
break-in was believed to have taken place shortly before 4.30am
on Thursday morning.
A
spokesman who works at the shop told Burnham-On-Sea.com: "Several
game boxes were taken, but fortunately they were just empty display
cases and nothing of any value was stolen."
The
shop was closed to customers for several hours, but opened for
business later in the afternoon.
A
poster in the shop's window stated: "Sorry we will be closed
today after an attempted break-in. No goods appear to be missing.
However, due to broken glass and the fact that the thief left
a nice blood sample, we will remain closed. Otherwise trading
will resume as normal tomorrow."
Police
are appealing for anyone with information to contact Crimestoppers
on 0800 555 111.
