It has been reported in This Is Somerset on October 15 in the article titled ‘St Cuthbert’s Church Burglar Caught By Footprints (And CCTV)’ that a laptop was allegedly stolen from an office at St Cuthbert’s Church in Wells, Somerset. According to the report, magistrates in Somerset were informed that the church, which has a self-contained office, was open to visitors and parish workers on September 3, when the laptop is believed to have been taken. The next day, a worker came into the office to find visible footprints and a laptop of unknown value to be missing.

This Is Somerset reports that CCTV captured footage of the incident which saw an individual leaving the premises with an item underneath his top. The individual was later arrested and interviewed by police where he admitted being responsible for the incident.
