Police are appealing for information after masked burglars stole a box of Christmas decorations from a home in Ilkeston.

Derbyshire Police said "either two or three men" broke into a flat in Cotmanhay Road at about 03:00 BST on Saturday.

They stole a set of festive decorations from inside the property before running away from the scene.

Officers believe the men then got into a dark VW Passat which was driven at speed towards Beauvale Drive.

Anyone with any information about the burglary or with footage taken in the area at the time is urged to contact the force.
