An expensive road bike's been stolen from an East Dorset garage, with an image released in case we've seen it being put up for sale.

The green Canyon Aeroad bike was taken during a burglary in Witchampton at around 11.50pm on Thursday last week (18th January).

Officers searched the area after the incident was reported, but no suspects were located.

There's now an appeal for witnesses to the theft, or who might have seen the bike since.

PC Steve Hall, of East Dorset police, said:

“We are carrying out enquiries into this burglary and I would urge anyone who witnessed any suspicious activity in the area on the night of Thursday 18 January into the early hours of Friday 19 January 2024 to please contact us.

“I am also issuing an image of the bike that was stolen and would urge anyone who comes across a matching bike being offered for sale locally or online in suspicious circumstances to please report it to us.”

If you can help with any information, you're asked to call Dorset Police on 101, quoting reference number 55240009513.
