Officers investigating a burglary in Dorchester are appealing for information and issuing an image of a mountain bike that was stolen.

At around 10.50pm on Tuesday 20 December 2022 Dorset Police received a report that two men were attempting to steal two motocross bikes from a garage at an address off Alington Avenue. The suspects reportedly abandoned the motocross bikes and made off from the scene.

It was then discovered that a black Specialized Fattie 29er mountain bike, valued at £2,800, had been stolen from the garage.

Police Constable Nathan Busby, of West Dorset police, said: “We are investigating this burglary and I would like to hear from anyone who witnessed any suspicious activity in the area around the time of the incident.

“I would also be keen to speak to anyone who may have home CCTV, doorbell camera or dashcam footage that might assist our enquiries.

“Finally, I am issuing an image of the bike that was stolen and would urge anyone who comes across a similar bike being sold online or locally in suspicious circumstances to please get in touch.”

Anyone with information is asked to contact Dorset Police at www.dorset.police.uk/contact or by calling 101, quoting occurrence number 55220204432. Alternatively, independent charity Crimestoppers can be contacted anonymously online at Crimestoppers-uk.org or by calling Freephone 0800 555 111.
