POLICE are appealing for information after a number of items were stolen from a Weymouth building site – a crime which was caught on CCTV.

Police say the incident took place sometime between 11:55pm on Monday March 12 and 12:45am on Tuesday March 13.

Two men travelled in a dark-coloured saloon car along Preston Road and into the Chalbury Stores car park.

They were then seen leaving the vehicle and walking onto the construction site in Littlemoor Road.

The offenders cut the cables of four CCTV cameras before taking the cameras and a laser level tripod.

Police Constable Carl Wood, of Weymouth police, said: “As part of my investigation I am now in a position to issue a CCTV image of the two suspects. While their faces are clearly hidden, I hope that someone may recognise them from the clothing they are wearing. I would urge anyone who can help me identify these two men to please come forward.

“I am also keen to hear from anyone who saw or heard anything suspicious in the area the relevant time.”
