Police hunt Christmas Day burglar

Sat, 27 Dec 2014

Police are appealing for help in catching a "heartless" burglar who robbed a family on Christmas Day.

A house on Primrose Avenue in Douglas was targeted in the late hours of December 25th whilst the occupants were asleep.

The intruder, who came in the back door, stole a PlayStation 4 games console, a white HP Pavilion laptop computer and money.

Anyone who is offered these items for sale has been urged to question where they came from.

Police say burglaries on the Island are on the rise and are asking people to ensure their doors are locked.
