A small business was targeted by burglars just after celebrating its two-year anniversary.

Darryl Brocklesby, who owns Cafe 88 in Accrington with his wife Wendy, says the criminals responsible left £200 worth of damage and the premises in a mess, spilling oil all over the floor after “ransacking it”. Thieves managed to unplug the Abbey Street shop’s CCTV before stealing around £200 worth of cheese, bacon, sausages, wine and gin, as well as £20 earned by the five members of staff from the tip jar.

“It looked as if they were ready to come back because the produce they took bears a significant weight and they moved the fan to put it on top of a box of eggs.” Darryl received a phone call from a local business at 6am informing him of the terrible news. Intruders forced their way into the cafe on Saturday, August 13, the same day Bladerunners Hairdressers on Warner Street was broken into in the early hours of the morning.
