Man, 53, arrested in connection with Chandler's Ford aggravated burglary

Officers investigating an aggravated burglary in Chandler’s Ford have arrested a 53-year-old man from Reading, Berkshire.

He was detained yesterday (Thursday 5 December) on suspicion of aggravated burglary, and has since been released on conditional police bail, pending further enquiries.

The arrest follows an incident at a coin dealership on Avonborne Way, which was reported to us shortly after 1.30pm on Friday 29 November.
