THREE diamonds worth £7,000 were stolen in a raid on a Winchester home yesterday (December 13).

Thieves stole a pair of earrings and a diamond pendant necklace from the upstairs bedroom of the house in Rewlands Drive, Harestock, after breaking in through a rear ground floor window. The burglary is thought to have happened between 9am and 7pm.

PC Elaine Cawkill, of Hampshire Police, said: "We are especially interested in any unusual sightings at about 6pm Thursday, when neighbours reported a dog barking continually."

Anyone with information is asked to contact the priority crime team at North Walls police station, Winchester, on 0845 045 45 45 or the anonymous Crimestoppers line on 0800 555 111.
