A Honda CRV was broken into while parked on Ashwell Lane in Glastonbury between 2pm and 3:15pm on 29th August.

The owner returned to find the rear window smashed and a camera bag stolen from the vehicle.

A police spokesperson said: "We're appealing for any witnesses, CCTV footage, or information. Community cooperation is essential in solving such incidents."

The police also issued a warning about leaving valuables in vehicles.

"We strongly advise against leaving any valuables such as camera bags, laptops, or phones in your car. Thieves are opportunistic; make it harder for them to target you," said the spokesperson.
