Police have recovered a stolen oven in north Belfast after identifying the household appliance in bodyworn footage of a separate incident.
The oven was among a number of items reported stolen by a resident on Sunday, with the victim pointing police towards a suspect with whom police had interacted a number of weeks previously.
“Yesterday afternoon we responded to a report of a burglary where a large number of items, including the kitchen oven, had been stolen,” said a PSNI spokesperson.
“The victim had suspicions as to who was involved and officers in attendance recognised the alleged suspect’s name from a separate incident a number of weeks prior.
“Officers were able to review their body worn video footage of that interaction and to their surprise were able to identify a number of items that had now been reported stolen in the suspect’s possession.
“Two people have now been arrested for burglary and approximately £6,000 worth of personal belongings (including the oven) have been retrieved.”
