CHESHIRE Police are appealing for witnesses after five Chester firms were broken into.

A pub, hairdressers, takeaway and shop were victims of the break-ins in City Road and Boughton in the early hours of Wednesday, February 17.

All the break-ins happened between midnight and 4am, and police officers believe the break-ins were committed by the same gang of offenders.

The gang smashed the windows or doors of the buildings to get inside.

They stole hair products, electrical items, cash and a till drawer during the burglaries.

Police are appealing for anyone who has any information, witnessed the break-ins or has been offered hair products or electrical items for sale to contact them on 0845 458 0000 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
