Sergeant Chris Holloway, of Nottinghamshire Police, said: “We have now made an arrest in this case following an in-depth investigation.

“Tackling burglary remains a key priority for us and along with our dedicated burglary teams, our officers will continue to do everything in their power to investigate any reports and find those responsible.

“Our investigation into this incident remains ongoing and we are still working hard to find those responsible so are continuing to ask the community to get in touch with us if they have any information.

“No matter how small, any information is incredibly helpful and could be the crucial bit of evidence to help us find those responsible.”
