Police are appealing for information after a woman had her handbag stolen from a supermarket car park in Burnham-On-Sea.

At about 2.30pm on Friday (May 5th) the elderly lady was unloading her trolley in Somerfield car par on the South Esplanade, pictured.

A dark blue car drove past her slowly and the driver grabbed her handbag which was on her shopping trolley.

The suspect is described as a skinny white man, aged 20-30 with short dark hair. Police are appealing for anyone who witnessed the incident to contact them.

They are particularly keen to trace the occupants of a old dirty white camper van which was following the suspect’s vehicle.

Anyone with information should contact PC Norman at Burnham Police Station on 0845 4567000.
