POLICE are appealing for witnesses after crooks forced their way into a caravan in Colchester.

The burglars broke into the static caravan on Severalls Lane by forcing a side window open.

Nothing is believed to have been taken in the raid, which happened between 7am and 12.15pm on July 5.

But police are trying to track the culprits and have appealed for anyone with information to contact PC Natalie King in Colchester on 101.
