Appeal after criminal damage at Newcastle student accommodation
Police have released a CCTV image to help their investigation
Officers investigating a report of criminal damage at a student accommodation in Newcastle have released an image of a man they would like to trace.
Shortly before 3am on July 20, officers received a report that an intruder had entered the Manor Bank Unite Students accommodation on Pandon Bank.
The male then ripped a securely-bolted television from the wall within the reception area, before making off on foot.
An investigation has been launched into the damage as officers look to identify the person responsible.
As part of their enquiries, police have now identified a man who they would like to speak to. He was seen in the area at the time of the offence and could assist the investigation.
The man, or anyone who recognises him, is asked to contact police via the ‘Tell Us Something’ page of the police website or by calling 101 quoting crime number 078572N/21.
