Suffolk police are on the hunt for thieves who broke into a secure compound before stealing a family’s Bailey Pageant caravan.

At some point after midnight on Wednesday, thieves broke into the storage facility at the Acorn Business Centre in Newmarket, cutting through a chain-link fence before driving off with the caravan. It has not been seen since.

Sue Gazeley, 50, branded the thieves who took her family’s caravan “stealing rotten scoundrels”, the Newmarket Journal reported.

To add insult to injury, the caravan had been equipped with nearly £1,500 worth of entertainment, including a television, DVD player and games.

“All they had to do was pop a pint of milk in the fridge and they were good to go,” she told the newspaper.

“I’m very sad and in shock because it was our family caravan.

Police are now appealing for information from the public in a bid to track down the thieves.
