CCTV images released following theft of mobile phone and bank card in Hook

Do you recognise these men?

Officers investigating a report that a woman in her 70s had her mobile phone and bank card stolen would like to speak with them.

At around 3.40pm on Thursday 15 February, a woman was followed by a man out of the Sainsbury’s store in Hook before her mobile phone and credit card were taken from her jacket pocket.

The man then passed her card to another man. Her credit card was then used to pay for a £50 transaction in the same store.

Since this was reported to us, officers have been carrying out a number of enquiries and are now in a position to release images of two men they would like to speak with.

The first man is described as being white and he was wearing a dark blue coat, glasses and headphones.

The second man is described as being white and he was wearing a black beanie hat and dark blue coat.

After leaving the store, both men walked onto Hewett Lane and headed towards Griffin Way North.

Do you recognise them? Were you in the store at the time? Did you witness any suspicious behaviour?
