POLICE are trying to trace the woman in this photograph to eliminate her from their enquiries into a distraction burglary.

It is believed she was in the area of Catherine Meazey flats on Sunday, May 3, around the time of a distraction burglary of a 78-year-old man.

Detective Inspector Clive Bevan said: “We wish to trace this woman as she may be able to assist with our enquiries and we are appealing for her to get in touch with us directly.”

During the incident a woman knocked on the man’s door and asked if she could use the toilet. Before leaving, the woman stole his wallet.

Anyone with any information is asked to call Barry police on 101 quoting reference number 1500155285. Alternatively Crimestoppers can be contacted anonymously on 0800 555 111.
