A suspected burglar wearing a camouflage baseball cap and seen running from a property in Broadstairs is being sought by police.

On Monday (June 14), at around 9.50pm, a home in Grange Road was reportedly broken into. The resident called police and patrols attended straight away, however the male suspect was not found.

The victim said she arrived home to find the back door of the premises broken and a wallet, cash, bank cards and a driving licence had been taken.

Enquiries were immediately carried out in the area, including house-to-house calls and a review of forensic opportunities and CCTV.

Officers believe the suspect fled the address in the direction of Beacon Road.
