Burglars forced their way into a house and stole the homeowner’s motorcycle.

The house in Appleford Road, Sutton Courtenay, was broken into some time between 10.20pm and 11.05pm on Sunday.

PC Stephen Knight said: “The burglars stole the motorbike and could have had transport to take the bike away as nobody heard the engine start.

“The bike is a Yamaha R6 with index T74 JCX and some unique extras, including a loud exhaust.

“I appeal to anyone who might have seen the bike or any suspicious behaviour in the area to contact me.”

Anyone with information should contact police on 08458 505505 or speak to Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
