Two people gained entry
Over £4,000 worth of tools were stolen from a Horndean business park.
Police received a report that overnight on 9 August into 10 August two people gained entry to Catherington Business Park on Catherington Lane and forced entry into business premises and storage containers.
Over £4,000 worth of tools were stolen from the site, including Hilti core drill, a Hilti vacuum pump, Hilti adaptors, Hilti stand and Hilti core drill bit.

The second person was said to be wearing a dark hooded top and tracksuit bottoms.
