Appeal following distraction theft in Burton

Do you recognise these men?

We would like to speak to them, after a distraction technique was used to steal a debit card in Burton.

The theft occurred on High Street between 11am and 11.30am on 31 October.

The victim, a man in his 70s, was putting some money that he had just withdrawn into his wallet, when a man approached him and claimed that the man had dropped a £10 note on the floor.

Shortly after this interaction, the victim noticed that his bank card had gone missing. After checking his account, he saw that £110 had been withdrawn at another cashpoint.
