Police would like to speak to him in connection with a theft incident which happened on 7 December last year in Church End, Southampton.

At 1.40pm, a Harvest Fine Foods van was stolen while the driver was doing a delivery and bruised her leg as it was driven away from the scene.

The vehicle was later recovered in Hardy Close, but the driver’s work phone and three boxes of mince pies valued at £30 were missing.

We are now releasing this image, as we believe this man has valuable information that could help our investigation and we urge him to get in touch with us.
