A man's been arrested after a burglary and kidnapping in Sudbury.
It happened around 8.15pm on Thursday 7 September at an address on Hall Rise.
Police tell us an unknown man entered the rear of the property through the back door and found a young girl on her own in the kitchen.
He spoke to the girl before leading her out of the house into the back garden and then lifted her through an open window of a summer house, before fleeing the scene.
The alarm was raised and the family, who were upstairs at the time, quickly found the girl.
The girl was not physically harmed but she and her family are being supported by specially trained officers.
A 28-year-old man was arrested yesterday, 10 September, on suspicion of burglary and kidnap.
