Thieves steal jewellery from Hemel Hempstead home

Between 1pm and 2pm on Tuesday August 8, offenders gained access to a home in Minstrel Close, Gadebridge, and searched inside.

The offenders are described as two white men. One was wearing baggy jeans and a black raincoat.

PC Chris Phillips, who is investigating, said: “This burglary took place in the middle of the day when the offenders gained access to the property by entering the rear garden and breaking a glass pane in a conservatory door.

“I’m appealing for anyone who heard or saw anything suspicious between the times stated to get in touch.”
