INTRUDERS have stolen 29 high-end saxophones worth several thousands of pounds.

The expensive instruments were taken during a break-in at Saxophones UK’s premises in Farningham Road, Crowborough, between Saturday night and Sunday morning.

On their website, the store is described as the "world's biggest saxophone store".

The intruders are thought to have forced their way into the warehouse between 11.30pm and 3.45am when alarms sounded.

Officers investigating the burglary have not ruled out the possibility that it may be linked to earlier thefts and attempted break-ins at the premises, when again thousands of pounds worth of instruments were targeted.
