Burglars steal cigarettes from Co-op store
BURGLARS broke into the Co-op store in Coggeshall and made off with cigarettes.

Once inside they emptied the stock into a bag and left through the front window.

"We are working with the police to identify those responsible.”
The incident happened at about 3.30am and police are asking anyone with more information to call Braintree Police on 101.
