TWO young men seen carrying bolt croppers are being hunted after shed break-ins on the outskirts of Clacton.

Sheds were targeted in Shotley Close and Stonham Avenue at about 7pm on February 19.

Loot grabbed by the crooks was found abandoned nearby after the suspects were disturbed.

Police are urging people to make sure garden sheds and gates are locked. Anyone with information should contact PC Alec Southgate at Clacton police.
