Police have located Mabel, the two-year-old King Charles Spaniel, who was reported as being stolen in Coney West in Bury St Edmunds.

But the location of her four puppies is still unknown.

The incident occurred between 12.50pm and 2.50pm on Tuesday 2 December, at an address in Thetford Road. A brown female two-year-old King Charles Spaniel named Mabel, and her four five-week-old puppies were stolen from the property, after an unknown male and female gained access to the property by causing damage to the windows of the front door and then obtaining a key.

A cream jewellery box was also reportedly taken.

Today, police have located Mabel in Kent, after she had been dropped over a fence. Mabel has now been reunited with her owner.

Anyone with any information about this crime, or who may have been offered four puppies for sale – or knows of someone who has recently acquired one – is asked to contact Suffolk Police, quoting reference: 37/68284/25.
