A despicable burglary has been caught on film. Footage captures three men getting into the rear of a Barnardo's charity shop.

After breaking in at night the gang, which included Stefan Moores, from Stockport, and two accomplices, smashed their way through a concrete wall to get into the Tesco store next door and steal £10,000 worth of cigarettes and stamps.

Footage shows the men arrive at Weston Grove shopping parade, Chester, just after 11pm. They walk to the back of the shops and get into the charity shop.

Chester Crown Court was told how on the evening of Sunday November 19th, 2023, Moores and two others had travelled from Manchester to Chester in a stolen Hyundai i30 using false number plates.
