Police have arrested and charged a suspect in connection with the theft of items from an NHS worker’s car following a media appeal.
The victim, who works as a health care assistant at the Queen’s Medical Centre, had just finished her shift before driving to the Co-op filling station on Woodborough Road, Mapperley.
While she was in the shop someone smashed her car window with a brick before stealing three bags from inside.
The incident happened at around 5.30pm on 22 April 2020.
Officers arrived a few minutes after it was reported and members of the public provided details.
Following a media appeal issued by Nottinghamshire Police information was provided and yesterday (Wednesday 13 May 2020) a suspect was arrested at an address in Mapperley in connection with the incident.
He was released on conditional bail and is set to appear at Nottingham Magistrates’ Court on 2 July 2020.
Inspector James Walker, of Nottinghamshire Police, said: “The arrest was made following information being provided by the community after a media appeal to identify a man we wanted to speak to in connection with the incident.
“The assistance provided by the community in this case has been invaluable and for that we give our sincere thanks.”
