POLICE are appealing for witnesses after a reported burglary at a Hereford home.

A house in Kilpeck Avenue was reportedly broken into during the early hours of Sunday morning. Just after midnight, the homeowner says he saw a group of men stealing a bike from his house.

The suspects, three men, fled the scene in a car that police believe was stolen during a separate incident.

Automatic number plate recognition cameras show the car was in Leominster, Bromyard, Hereford and Worcester on Saturday, February 24.

One of the suspects, a 19-year-old male, was found and arrested on suspicion of burglary and theft of a motor vehicle. He has been released on bail while enquiries continue.
