A HOME in Hatherop, near Fairford, was burgled while the family who live there were away enjoying an Easter break.

Thieves broke in through a patio door at the back of the house and stole an iPad and charger, a television and various ornaments.

They also took several bicycles from the shed and then drove away in the family's BMW car which was parked on the drive.

The break-in was discovered when the family returned home on Wednesday, April 8. Police are appealing for information.

Anyone who has seen the BMW 520d - registration number PX12 CKV - is asked to call Gloucestershire police on 101, quoting incident number 168 of April 8.
