CCTV appeal after handbag stolen at Nottingham bowling alley and card used in KFC
Police[1] have released pictures of two men they want to trace after a woman's handbag was stolen at a Nottingham bowling alley. The 33-year-old victim was bowling at Tenpin Bowling, off the A52 Clifton[2] Boulevard, in Redfield Way, on December 10, when a man came over to her and started a short conversation. The woman and her partner realised her handbag was missing shortly after, Nottinghamshire Police said.
The force added three bank cards, which had been inside the handbag, were used at shops in Beeston and Radford[3], including One Stop and KFC. The thieves also tried to order an iPhone 15 pro max online but the sale was declined. Police officers have now released images of two men who they believe can assist with their investigation.
