“Due to the time it happened and the gallery’s location in the middle of the city centre, there will have been several people in the area at the time.

“Bearing this in mind, we’d ask anyone who saw what happened to get in touch with us, so that we can track down the person responsible.

“We believe the man in these pictures may have had some involvement, so we’d ask anyone who recognises him to call the police on 101, quoting incident 350 of 26 March 2024.

“Information can also be left anonymously by calling Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.”
