Police have launched an appeal for information after an attempted burglary at a home. Officers have released a picture of a man they would like to speak to as they investigate the alleged incident in Sunderland.
Between 9.30am and 10am on Saturday, April 22, it was reported that a man attempted to gain access to a property on Silksworth Road by trying the front door handle. When he was unsuccessful, the man tried to remove a Ring doorbell from the front door. The suspect then fled the area on foot empty-handed, and the incident was later reported to police.
A spokesperson from Northumbria Police said: "An investigation was launched and a number of enquiries have been ongoing since the report was made. As part of their enquiries, police have today issued an image of a man they would like to speak to.
