Officers investigated a series of burglaries at three shops in Ryde's Royal Victoria Arcade in September 2023, with the man responsible - David Dunford - jailed in May.

Dunford's burglary resulted in £2,372 worth of items being stolen, and over £3,000 in damage caused.

During the course of this investigation, police seized a number of items suspected to be stolen, many of which were returned to their rightful owners.

However, Hampshire and IW Constabulary still have a number of items still in its possession which officers are trying to identify the owners for.

These items are:

  • Seven packs of magazines, totalling several hundred. They are a mix of Beano and Tiger.
  • Five small boxes of costume jewellery.
  • A black smart watch.

A police spokesperson said: "If you recognise any of these items to be yours, please contact police with proof of ownership by calling 101, and quoting 44230390432."
