POLICE are asking for help in identifying these men following the theft of bank cards from a woman at Morrison's supermarket in Maldon earlier this month.

It was reported that on Saturday, 12 September, at around 10.50am, a man approached a woman while she was loading shopping into her car in the supermarket car park at Wycke Hill.

While the man was asking for directions, bank cards were removed from the woman's purse, which were in her bag on the front seat of her car.

The cards were then used to withdraw a three-figure sum of cash.

It is thought that the man could have been with another man, who was reported to stand very close to the woman as she used her PIN to pay for her shopping.

If you recognised these men or have any information about who they are, please get in contact with the Maldon Local Policing team [L]https://www.essex.police.uk/tua/tell-us-about/cor/tell-us-about-existing-case-report/[L+]here.L]

Alternatively you can call 101 or provide information completely anonymously by contacting independent charity Crimestoppers, completely anonymously.

Please reference 42/145717/20 when providing information. This will ensure your information gets to the right person as quickly as possible.
