THE OWNERS of a Southend home disturbed three burglars.
The crooks had tried to force their way into a bungalow in Wick Chase, but then fled towards Southend Boulevard after they were detected.
It happened shortly after 12.30am on Wednesday, March 14.
Officers are linking this offence to a car break-in where thieves stole a small quantity of cash from a neighbour’s red car further down the road at approximately the same time.
The suspects are decribed only as three white men.
A forensic examination of the scene was conducted and house-to-house enquiries were completed.
Anyone with information in connection with this attempted burglary and theft is urged to contact detectives at Southend police station on 101.
