A Suspect Has Been Charged By Detectives Investigating Three Burglaries

At around 12.45 a.m. on Thursday, January 19, police were called to an address in West Furlong, Retford, after a person was reported to be loitering near cars and homes.

Officers responded and arrested a suspect.

A previous break-in had also been reported on Trinity Road.

Robert Brammer, 52, faces one count of burglary and two counts of attempted burglary.

Brammer, of Harworth, Doncaster, was also charged with assaulting a police officer while in custody.

On Friday (20 January), he appeared in Nottingham Magistrates’ Court and was remanded in custody. He is scheduled to appear in Nottingham Crown Court on February 17th.

Investigating burglaries is a force priority, and I am pleased that we have been able to charge a suspect so quickly,” said Detective Constable Mark Duncombe of Nottinghamshire Police.

“Strangers have violated the homes and lives of robbery victims, and we are determined to get justice for them.”

I would like to praise the very swift police response in this case, as well as the member of the public who got in touch to report their suspicions to us,” said Inspector Hayley Crawford, district commander for Bassetlaw.

“As this case demonstrates, we act decisively when we suspect such offences are taking place.”
