A BURGLARY in Chalford may be linked to earlier reports of three men seen walking around wearing balaclavas or scarves.

Thieves broke into a property via the garden, stealing vehicle keys and jewellery, including a Christian Dior silver necklace.

Police are investigating if the incident is linked to reports they received earlier the same evening of three males walking around Chalford between 6.45pm and 7pm on Tuesday, March 3, with their faces hidden.

They were described as wearing dark clothes, in their mid 20s, of slim to medium build and around 5ft 8ins to 6ft tall.

Anyone with information should call 101, quoting incident 453 of 3 March.
