Police Launch Hunt for Shoplifting Duo

The theft happened just after 1.40pm on February 6, 2023. Nottinghamshire Police are on the case and have released images of two men they want to question.

‘Shoplifting Is a Blight on Our Community’

PC Emma Weatherhill said: “Shop thefts of this nature are completely unacceptable and seriously undermine the goodwill amongst the community.

“There’s an untold agreement that shoppers have to pay for items they want – they can’t steal them.

“Thefts like this are a blight on society and will always be investigated by Nottinghamshire Police.

“We believe the two people pictured could have important information that could assist our inquiries, so we’d ask anyone who recognises them to get in touch.”
