BURGLARS broke into a garage, took photos of a jet ski and smashed CCTV cameras before leaving empty handed.

At around 1.20am on Monday, March 27, three men forced entry to a communal garage in Boscombe Cliff Road.

They left the premises before returning soon afterwards with a fourth man and were seen to take photographs of a jet ski that was in the garage before damaging further cameras.

It is not believed anything was stolen during the incident and the four men are believed to have left the scene in a white transit style van in the direction of Michelgrove Road.

Officers investigating the burglary in Bournemouth are appealing for information and have issued CCTV images of three suspects.

Police Constable Jack Honnywill, of Bournemouth Police, said: “We are conducting enquiries into this burglary, and I am appealing to any witnesses or anyone with information to come forward.

“As part of our investigation, we have obtained CCTV images of the suspects. I appreciate their faces are covered but we are releasing these as it may be someone recognises their clothing or the images help to jog the memory of anyone who witnessed any suspicious activity in the area.”
