Wiltshire Police have arrested a man following a series of break-ins in Swindon’s town centre.
Midnight Smash and Grab
Just after midnight on January 29, trouble kicked off at Momo King on Havelock Street. The thief smashed the door, snatched alcohol, then came back and stole the cash till, loaded with a large sum of money.

Moments later, Redline Racing in Theatre Square also fell victim. The door was smashed again, and about £2,000 worth of goods were taken.
