Suspected thieves were caught allegedly stealing almost £10k worth of copper from a plumbing shop - leaving staff gutted.

Employees at Fairways Plumbing and Heating Supplies in Gravesend, Kent, say they feel angry and unsafe after a group made off with a large amount of stock last week.

The four suspects allegedly broke through the shop’s window and stole items within a 10-minute window between 1.20am and 1.30am last Tuesday (July 23).

CCTV then caught two men making off with countless copper tubing and cylinders, the firm’s mobile phone, keys to its van and the cash register.

They were captured walking in and out of the premises and taking the stolen goods to a waiting car outside.
