POLICE investigating a spate of burglaries in south Warwickshire villages have turned their attention to Welford.

Last Thursday saw raiders break into a home in High Street and take jewellery and a laptop computer. More jewellery, computer equipment and cameras were stolen from a house in Rowington the same day and police are linking the two offences to similar ones in other villages, including Haselor, over the past few weeks.

Anyone with information is asked to contact the anonymous Crimestoppers line on 0800 555 111.
