A PURSE containing cash, credit and store cards was stolen after a walk-in theft at Yew Tree Farm craft centre, Wootton Wawen, last Tuesday.

Police believe the thief got into the Stratford Road centre through a back door at about 11.45am and snatched the victim's purse out of her handbag.

Police believe a man, driving a yellow fiesta, seen speeding up Pettiford Lane, was involved.

He is described as white, about 28, with black hair and wearing a 'cheap looking' blue or green suit.

Anyone with information can call 762207.
