Dorset Police CCTV appeal for man following theft of bike

Officers investigating the theft have issued a CCTV image of a man they would like to speak to. At around 4.40pm on Wednesday, December 6, the grey Carrera Sulcata mountain bike was taken from outside the Asda superstore at Castlepoint retail park. Police community support investigator Kate Hann, from Dorset Police, said: “We have been making enquiries into this theft and have obtained an image of a man we wish to identify and speak to.

“Whilst I appreciate that the image isn’t of great quality, I am hoping someone may be able to identify him from his clothing”. Kate Hann added: “I would urge anyone who recognises him to come forward. “I would also like to hear from anyone who has come across a bike matching the description being offered for sale in suspicious circumstances.”
