POLICE have released a CCTV image of a man they would like to speak to after an attempted burglary at a store in Wells.
The incident happened earlier this month, on Thursday, February 15, on Broad Street.
The image released by officers shows a “distinctive bag and motorcycle – believed to be a Royal Enfield Hunter”.
An Avon and Somerset Police spokesperson said: “Enquiries are ongoing after an attempted burglary at a store in Wells earlier this month.
“An unknown man attempted to force entry to a shop, on Broad Street, at approximately 8.45am to 9am on Thursday, February 15.
“The offender was unsuccessful in gaining entry due to the store’s security and because they were disturbed.
“CCTV enquiries have been carried out and show a man we wish to speak to in connection with the incident.”
Officer in the case Jim Card said: “We appreciate the CCTV images do not show the man’s face, but believe the distinctive bag and motorcycle – believed to be a Royal Enfield Hunter – may mean someone can help us identify him for us.
“We’d ask anyone who can help our efforts to please contact us online or call 101 providing the call-handler with reference number 5224040212.”
