Around £5,000 of cash and tools have been stolen following a burglary in Guisborough.

Police are appealing for private CCTV or dash cam footage following the burglary at Euremica on Morgan Drive.

The burglary occurred at around 1.15am on Sunday.

Cash and tools stolen from the premises were later recovered in a black Peugeot 307 vehicle by officers on Bevanlee Road in South Bank.

It is believed two males were responsible for the incident and officers are appealing for anyone with information regarding the suspects or anyone with footage of the incident or the vehicle to contact police on the non-emergency number 101, or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.

Three men have appeared in court charged with drugs offences after police stopped a vehicle in Grangetown.

After a search of the vehicle and the three occupants, class A and C drugs were recovered, alongside £2000 cash and what is believed to be a bottle of ammonia.

The three men, aged 30, 23 and 18, appeared at Teesside Magistrates Court yesterday.
