Officers investigating the theft of a mobile phone from a coffee shop in Coalville have released an image of two people they want to speak to.

At around 1.40pm on 10 June, two women were approached by another woman at the shop in Adcock Road. The woman distracted them before taking a phone. It is believed the woman was with a man.

PC Nicol Rowell, the investigating officer, said: “I would like to speak to the man and woman pictured as I believe they may have information about the incident.

“While I appreciate the woman is wearing a mask – and the man’s face cannot be seen – I am hoping someone may recognise them from the clothes they are wearing. Any details you can provide could help.”
