POLICE have shared further CCTV footage of three women they are looking for after a man in a wheelchair had £4,000 stolen in the town centre.

Last week, officers from the town centre beat team appealed for help in identifying three women using CCTV skills.

They said they had ‘grounds to suspect’ the women to be responsible for a bank follow and distraction theft that took place on Monday, October 14.

Now, Warrington Police has been able to identify further sources of CCTV, allowing them to update the appeal.

“We would still very much value the public’s help in identifying these females,” a Facebook post from the force reads.

“If you can help, please contact us on 101 or public.contact@cheshire.police.uk and quote 24000875860.”
