Police were called to Giles & Bella on Kirk Gate, Newark, after thieves helped themselves to over £1,000 worth of handbags and clothing on the afternoon of 1 March 2023.
Officers have launched an investigation and are keen to identify two women who may hold vital information about the theft. The shoplifting has hit this small independent business hard.
PC Joseph Krawiecki of Nottinghamshire Police said, “This crime was committed against a small independent shop, so as a result of that it has really hit the store owners hard. Shoplifting offences like this can have a huge impact on people’s livelihoods, which negatively affects the wider community as well.”
He added, “We believe the two women in these images could have information that could assist our inquiries, so it’s important that anyone who recognises them gets in touch with us.”
If you recognise the women or have any information, report it to Nottinghamshire Police on 101 quoting incident 421 of 1 March 2023, or contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
