Two suspected burglars were arrested after police stopped a car following an overnight break-in.
Officers were called to St Albans Road, Arnold, at around 3.30 am on Tuesday (11 February) when a woman reported that her home had been broken into.
The victim, who was not home at the time, was able to confirm that a number of items were missing.
Officers pulled over a vehicle in Surgeys Lane, Arnold, a short time later.
They detained two men and, after searching the car, recovered a crowbar.
Two men, aged 36 and 38, are in custody on suspicion of burglary.
The 38-year-old man was further detained on suspicion of driving while unfit through drugs after a roadside drugs wipe revealed traces of cocaine.
Detective Sergeant Matt Dumbrell, of Nottinghamshire Police, said:
“The officers who attended the break-in worked efficiently to locate this vehicle quickly and arrest two suspects.
“Whenever officers attend a home break-in, we also support the victim. We understand how distressing it can be to have your personal space invaded by an intruder and have precious items stolen.
“Despite these arrests, we’d still ask anyone with any information, or relevant doorbell, dashcam, or CCTV footage, to come forward.”
Anyone who can assist should call 101, quoting incident number 36 of 11 February 2025, or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
