OFFICERS have appealed after burglars stole £200 from a house in Old Town last week.

The break-in happened between 5pm and 9pm on Thursday, November 8. A house on Bath Road at the junction with Eastcott Road was targeted by the thieves.

PC Jamie Brown said: "This happened in a busy area of town close to a main road, someone must have seen something suspicious. If that was you please contact me."

Armed police were called to the home on Thursday night, following reports of a man carrying a weapon near the house.

Anyone with information should call Wiltshire Police on 101 or Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555 111.
