Thieves broke into a home in Winbrook between 6.45am and 6.30pm yesterday and stole several hundred pounds worth of designer aftershave as well as Lacoste trainers, clothing and a holdall, a North Face fleece coat and a pair of Oakley sunglasses.

Electrical items stolen included a black Bose surround-sound system, a Toshiba laptop, a PlayStation 3 with controllers and games and an Apple iPhone 4.

Jewellery including a gentleman’s chain with a Birmingham City emblem and a men’s Tiffany and Co platinum bracelet were also stolen in the burglary as well as a quantity of cash.

A daytime burglary also took place in Wyre Hill, between 10.15am last Thursday and 4pm on Saturday, while the owners were away.

Thieves stole two money boxes containing cash and caused about £200 worth of damage.
