Detectives investigating a Northampton break-in last month want to put a name to a bobble-hatted man spotted on CCTV cameras.

A house in Louise Road, off Barrack Road, was burgled at around 1.25pm on April 8, shortly after the occupants had gone out. Police say a man knocked at the door then left while a man was then seen climbing a wall at the rear of the property.

Officers have scoured hours of footage from security and doorbell cameras and come up with images of a bearded man wearing dark clothing they believe could have key information.
