DETECTIVES appealing for information after a ‘substantial’ amount of cash was taken from a building society.
Burglars are thought to have broken into the Marsden Building Society branch in Gisburn Road, Barrowford,over the weekend.
Staff locked the premises, near the junction with Church Street, at around noon on Saturday and discovered the break-in when they opened for business on Monday.
Det Insp Marie Haworth, of Burnley CID, said: “This was clearly a reasonably sophisticated break-in as the offenders have managed to make off with a safe from inside the building.”
Anyone with any information should call police on 101 quoting log number 251 of June 3 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
