Audi A3 stolen from Plymouth home as police launch manhunt for thieves

Three thieves stole an Audi from a property in Honicknowle before driving off from the scene in the stolen car. Three young men broke into a house on Macauley Crescent and took some car keys before stealing the black Audi A3.

The theft was carried out on Monday, November 4. The men were seen in the street trying doors to houses and cars, before breaking into the home.

They also tried to steal an Audi A4 but were confronted by the owner. Two of the suspected made off in the stolen car, while the third fled on a push bike.

Devon and Cornwall Police believe the same men had also been trying door handles in nearby streets, including Conrad Road and Dryden Avenue.

Detective Constable Nathan Drew said: “We are appealing to residents to check their CCTV, dashcam and doorbell footage in case they captured images of the males, who may have tried more door handles than we are currently aware of.

“If anyone knows the whereabouts of the stolen Audi A3, with the number plate of EG12XAN or has any information about this matter, we urge them to contact us.”

Police are appealing for information from anyone who saw what happened. Anyone who can help is asked to contact the force via the website here or by calling 101 quoting 50240279145.
