Wiltshire Police have recovered a large amount of the stolen items from the Swindon West Police Point, including all of the uniform and police kit.

Additionally, a 27-year-old man from Swindon was arrested on Monday evening on suspicion of burglary and has been released on police bail.

The items, which were stolen on Sunday, May 14, were located at a property in Swindon following a forensic search.

Assistant Chief Constable Deb Smith said: “I hope that this update provides some reassurance to our communities but, let me clear, our investigation will continue at pace.

“Whilst I need to be cognisant of the live, criminal proceedings, this incident has been a catalyst for us to conduct an urgent, wide-ranging review of our estate security.

“This is to ensure our people, buildings, and the information we hold are safeguarded more rigorously.

“I appreciate the impact this burglary has had on our communities in Swindon and wider but, my commitment to you, is that we will learn lessons from this incident.”

Three other men were arrested in connection with this incident. They will face no further action.
