Police have appealed for witnesses after silverware was stolen during a burglary at a property in Sarisbury Green.
Detectives said the break in took place between 10am and 6.40pm last Thursday (April 4) at a house in Barnbrook Road. Police had originally issued an appeal for witnesses to a burglary in Barnwood Road – which is in Fareham and not Sarisbury – but this morning (April 9) corrected their error.
Entry was forced to the property and among the items of silverware stolen were a sauce boat, silver tongs and silver dishes with mini spoons. Also stolen was a cream jug and matching sugar bowl.
Hampshire Police Staff Investigator Jane Dye said: “I would like to speak to anyone who was in the area at the time of the burglary and saw anything suspicious.
“Did you have any unknown callers at your door or do you know anyone who has recently been in possession of items similar to those stolen?”
Anyone with any information about the incident is asked to contact Police Staff Investigator Dye at Gosport police station by phoning 101.
