At around 1.30am on Friday January 6, thieves pulled up on Princes Road and smashed the passenger side window of a white panel van, before gaining entry to the rear of the van. All the tools had been removed from the van and the thieves left empty handed.

The same van was also targeted in November last year and police believe that the same set of people have targeted the van each time.

Officers have now released CCTV footage to help to trace those responsible, particularly the Audi which is suspected to have been involved in similar crimes.

The Audi is black in colour with silver wing mirrors and a loud exhaust. It is alleged that the owners may regularly change their registration plate.

Over recent months police have received reports of thieves breaking into vans, particularly trades vehicles, across the High Peak and Derbyshire Dales, to steal power tools. Operation Everman is set to tackle the issue.
