£100k worth of boilers stolen from Hillington central heating company
Police are appealing for witnesses after the theft over the Christmas break
Workers at a central heating company in Hillington have returned to work after the Christmas break to discover more than £100,000 worth of boilers have been stolen.
Police say five men dressed in high-vis broke in on the 27th of December with two lorries and a van.
They came back for a second load later in the day.
Detective Constable Jack McElwee of CID said: “From our enquiries so far, we know that five or six men dressed in high visibility clothing broke into the building around 7.40 am on Wednesday, 27 December 2023.
"They left with the stolen goods in two trucks and a van. They later return for a second load the same day. The van was a white VW crafter, and the trucks were curtainsiders, white cabs with blue curtains.
“This theft was obviously pre-planned, with the thieves knowing that this business and other premises were open during this period.
“We would appeal to anyone who was in the area at the time or who may have information about the break-in to come forward.”
