An investigation has been started by Nottinghamshire Police, after a reported "snack raid" on a university campus.

Officers say £80-worth of crisps, chocolate, sweets and wafers were taken from a Costa Coffee outlet on Nottingham Trent Uni's Clifton Campus.

A group allegedly went behind the counter and took a large quantity of products, including 25 chocolate bars, 25 packets of crisps, 15 packets of wafers and 10 packets of mints.

No staff or customers were around at the time, when it happened on Tuesday 21st May.

CCTV has now been released by police, of four males they would like to speak to in connection.

PCSO Martin Fisher, of Nottinghamshire Police, said: "This type of offending is a blight on society and has a detrimental impact on businesses.

"We believe the people in these images could have valuable information that could assist our inquiries.

"With this in mind, we’d ask that anyone who recognises them gets in touch with us, so that we can ask them some questions."
