POLICE want to speak to this man after thieves brazenly stole scaffolding in a mid-afternoon raid. 

Shortly before 1.45pm on Thursday, two men were seen dismantling scaffolding in Horntye Road, St Leonards, and placing it into a white dropside hire vehicle.

Later that day, it was realised the men were not from the company responsible for the scaffolding at that property.

The Argus:

Officers investigating the theft would like to speak to anyone who saw the two men, or anyone who has any other information that could assist with the investigation.

They are particularly keen to speak to the men pictured, as they believe he could help with their enquiries.

A force spokesman said: “Anyone who recognises him or anyone with any other information is asked to contact police online or by calling 101 quoting serial 347 of 10/07.

The Argus:
“Alternatively, you can call the independent charity Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.”
