Police appeal for information following residential burglary
Officers appealing for information following a burglary in south east London have released images of some of the stolen jewellery.
Half a million pounds worth of gold was taken from a house in Bickley Road, Bromley on the evening of Monday, 30 December 2024.
Footage gathered shows three men entering the property through a forced bathroom window. They entered the address at 17:40hrs and left at 18:25hrs, carrying out the theft while the owners were home.
Detectives are keen to trace the stolen property in the hope of returning it to the owners, and are asking the public to come forward if they recognise any of the pieces.
Detective Constable Jamie White, of the Met’s South Area Command Unit, said:
“While the monetary value of this theft is enormous, the sentimental value is priceless – with many of the pieces being passed down through generations of the family.
“Helpfully, a number of the pieces stolen are unique, so we are hoping that releasing these photographs will jog someone’s memory. If you have seen these items anywhere – or know of anyone handling the goods – please do get in touch with the Met via 101, quoting 01/1257889/24.”
If you have information and wish to stay anonymous, you can speak to Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
No arrests have been made at this stage.
