THIEVES broke into the Harwood Morrisons store in the early hours of this morning.

Staff working at the supermarket, which was closed, noticed the break-in at about 4am.

An unknown number of raiders had removed panes of glass from a door to sneak inside and steal a quantity of perfume.

The assailants did not come into contact with staff and it is not known whether or not they were armed.

They managed to escape without being seen and police are appealing for information.

Anyone who knows anything about the break-in should call 101.
