Dyfed-Powys Police is investigating a burglary that has left a Newtown business £30,000 out of pocket.

The burglary, which happened shortly after 3am on Saturday, May 4, involved a ram raid, by a white transit van, at Freestyle Bikes, St Giles Business Park.

Two blue and white Yamaha bikes and a white and blue HUSQVARNA bike were stolen. They are worth £18,649 in total. Damage thought to cost £12,000 to repair was also caused during the incident.
