Burglars smash through skylights of Hipperholme business and steal £500,000 worth of merchandise

It is reported that between 3pm on Friday March 11 and 4:10pm on Sunday March 13 burglars entered the building of an outlet warehouse in Brow Mills Industrial Estate on Brighouse Road.

They gained entry by smashing three skylight windows in the roof.

Upon entering the building through the smashed windows, it is reported the suspects then drilled through the ceiling of the warehouse to gain entry to the storage room.

The suspects carried out an untidy search of the room, stealing the majority of the merchandise inside.

It is reported the suspects also searched the rest of the warehouse, taking out shelves and shelving cabinets, leaving the building this way.

It is estimated that around £500,000 of merchandise was taken from the property.

Police have also issued images of the types of products that were stolen, in a bid to locate them.

Anyone with information is asked to contact Calderdale police on 101, quoting crime reference 13220136043
