Investigation to identify six suspects involved in an attempted break-in

We’re appealing for information about an attempted burglary at a home in Harrogate.

It happened on St John’s Crescent on Tuesday (30 April) at 5.47pm.

Five men and one woman climbed onto a rood at the back of the building and tried to force a window open.

They then ran off towards St John’s Road, then possibly onto Crab Lane.

We’re particularly appealing for information about the identity of those involved and possible CCTV evidence. 

The woman has medium-length brown hair, is age 30-40, and was wearing a black jumper with grey jeans and white and pink trainers.

One of the men has short brown hair, is in his early 20s, and was wearing a pair of grey joggers, a grey jumper and a grey puffer jacket with grey shoes.

Another man has short brown hair, is in his early 20s, and was wearing a black jumper.

And one of the men has short black hair with a skin fade on the side, is aged mid-20s to 30 and wore a grey Under Armour-brand quarter zip top with grey shorts, white socks and white trainers.
