Officers are issuing CCTV images of three men they would like to identify following a series of thefts at a store in Poole.
Between December 2024 and February 2025, Dorset Police received four separate reports of three men entering the John Lewis store at the Poole Retail Park in Redlands where they stole high-value cookware items.
These occurred at around 9.20am on Tuesday 3 December 2024 in which a frying pan set was taken, at 11.25am on Monday 27 January 2025 in which a saucepan set was stolen, at 9.45am on Friday 7 February 2025 in which a Le Creuset set was taken and at around 9.30am on Monday 10 February 2025 in which another cookware set was stolen.
It is reported that the men removed the security tags of the items before leaving the store without making attempts to pay.
Police Constable Robert Roaf, of Dorset Police, said: “As part of my enquiries, I have obtained CCTV images of three men I would like to identify.
“I would ask anyone who recognises them to please get in touch.”
