Witnesses sought

 

Police are appealing for the public’s help following the theft of a large quantity of golfing clothes in the North Somerset area.

 

They would like members of the public - particularly golf players and those attending car boot sales - to be vigilant for well-known golf clothing being offered for sale.

 

The items were taken from a golf club in Clevedon Road, Tickenham at about 4.30am on Friday 22 February.

 

Items taken include: trousers; jumpers, jackets and polo shirts. The clothing is branded – Ping, Footjoy, Proquip and Sunderland. In addition a Titleist Stadry stand-up golfing bag was taken.

 

We would like anyone spotting the items taken, or being offered them, to contact the police.

 

Police are also keen to hear from anyone who was in the Clevedon Road area of Tickenham around the time of the incident who may have seen a vehicle or anyone acting suspiciously in the area.

 

Anyone able to help is asked to contact the Police on 101, quoting reference 5219039226
