Police are appealing for witnesses after number plates were stolen of a car in Bracknell, and later used during criminal activity.
Sometime after 4pm on 20 July, number plates belonging to a Bracknell Silver Fiat Punto were stolen from outside an address in Crossfell, Wildridings.
At approximately 8.50pm that day (20/7), a silver Peugeot displaying the same Bracknell registration plates – AJ06 KLP – made off without making a payment from a petrol station forecourt along the A33, towards Basingstoke.
Bracknell PC Alec Phillips, officer investigating, said: “The number plates are likely to have been stolen off the Punto whilst it was still light outside. The car was parked at the far side of a car park at the end of Crossfell, which is at the end of a block of flats. It is therefore likely that someone may have either witnessed the offence or seen someone acting suspiciously in the area.”
PC Phillips can be contacted via the 24 hour police enquiry centre number on 0845 8 505 505. Those who do not wish to speak to police or leave their name should call Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
