An expensive high-end bike was stolen during a break-in at the home of an 82-year-old man. Police are appealing for information after the burglary at a house in Wigan, in which two bikes were taken including a Pinarello bicycle.
The bikes manufactured by the Italian company cost thousands of pounds. Thieves struck at a property on Poplar Street in Tyldesley last week.
"Officers are appealing for information in relation to a burglary that occurred at the home of an 82 yr old male on Poplar Street on the night of 10 - 11/04/22," a post on the GMP Leigh, Atherton and Hindley Facebook page read.
