BURGLARS have smashed through the rear French doors of a home in Drury Road.

It is the latest in a series of raids by a gang of crooks who are going around Colchester smashing their way into homes via rear doors.

An e-fit has been released of a suspect following the break-in on March 30 between 11.50am and 2.30pm.

It is an image of one of two men seen walking down the driveway of the property.

An iPad tablet was stolen from the home.

Anyone with information or who recognises the efit call Det Con Hannah Richardson at Colchester CID on 101 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
