Police Appeal After Aggravated Burglary In Nuneaton

WARWICKSHIRE Police are appealing for information after an aggravated burglary took place on Central Avenue in Nuneaton.

The incident happened on Tuesday 6 January at around 1am.

Two offenders forced entry to the property, armed with baseball bats, whilst the home owner was inside. They went on to assault the victim, a man in his 40s, causing him minor injuries.

It is unclear if anything has been stolen at this time.

PSI Colin Rust, the investigating officer, said: “This was a particularly nasty incident where the occupier must have been quite terrified by what he encountered on this night.

“I am very keen to hear from anyone that may have any information about this incident and would urge them to contact me, either in confidence using the Crimestoppers number 0800 555 111, or at Nuneaton CID on 02476 641111.”
