Man arrested in connection with Isle of Wight burglaries linked to doorstop sales

Police say that a man has been arrested as part of an investigation into burglaries linked to doorstep sales on the Isle of Wight.

An appeal was launched last month after a man had entered the home of a woman in her 90s in Freshwater.

The incident occurred in the late summer when the man took money from the woman’s purse whilst she lay in bed.

Arrested and in custody
Police confirm today (Thursday) that a 43-year-old man from Nottingham was arrested as part of this investigation.

He remains in custody at this time.
