Burglary appeal: Can you help?

Dear Resident

We are appealing to the Lea Castle community for information following a burglary at a home on 1st August 2026 on Lea Castle Drive, Kidderminster.

The burglary took place at 12:55am. 

The two offenders arrived on a moped. One of the males was wearing a black puffa-style jacket, jogging bottoms and NIKE trainers. It is believed that the offenders gained access to the property to steal car keys. The same offenders have then tried to access the back gate of another property on Lea Castle Drive approximately 10 minutes later. 

Did you see anything suspicious or have any information such as CCTV that might help enquires?

Please get in touch with us by calling 101 and quoting incident number 00120_I_01082026.

If you aren’t comfortable contacting us directly, you can pass on information anonymously to the independent charity, Crimestoppers, by calling 0800 555 111 or by visiting their website: www.crimestoppers-uk.org

Please take this time to ensure that all doors to your property are locked overnight, and ensure that any key-less vehicle keys are placed in a faraday pouch/bag to prevent key-less car thefts. 

Kind regards,

PC 21960 Joesbury-Clarke
