House in Reigate the target of a burglary

Enquiries continue into a burglary in Reigate.

The offenders are thought to have gained entry to the property on Harrison Close by smashing the glass on the UPVC front door.

It is believed they then used cleaning products in an attempt to cover their tracks.

The incident occurred Thursday afternoon shortly after 4 o’clock.

It is thought they left empty handed.

In another incident around the time of the break-in, a man was seen to be acting suspiciously.  When challenged by a member of the public a spray was used and the witness was threatened with a garden tool.

Anyone with information is asked to contact Surrey Police.
