Police have launched an appeal for witnesses after thousands of pounds worth of bikes were stolen from a garage.

An unknown number of offenders broke into a garage in Lime Street, Nether Stowey, before making off with three green Kawasaki motocross bikes and two electric bikes.

The thefts took place between Saturday April 8 and Sunday April 9 - now police have launched an appeal to identify the culprits.

Officers are looking to speak with any person who heard or saw anything suspicious over the April weekend, or have seen the pictured items for sale.

A spokesperson for Avon and Somerset said: "If you can help, please call 101 and give the call handler the reference number 5223082318, or complete our online appeals form.

"You can contact the independent charity Crimestoppers 100 per cent anonymously on0800 555 111 or via their Anonymous Online Form.

"No personal details are taken, information cannot be traced or recorded and you will not go to court or have to speak to police when contacting Crimestoppers."

The appeal comes after the Holford Cricket Club, which is just 2.8 miles from Nether Stowey, was burgled in the same month.

Overnight, between Wednesday April 19 and Thursday April 20, an unknown number of thieves made off with power tools and garden equipment from the club grounds.

The club captain said the thieves had caused extensive damage to the building and stolen important equipment.

In March a separate cricket club was burgled on Durleigh Road when thieves stole a red quad bike, bolt cutters and keys, before damaging a fence as they fled the scene.
