A popular café on Ventnor Esplanade is closed to customers today (Sunday) following a burglary overnight.
Persons unknown are understood to have forced entry to Besty and Spinky’s cafe, located on the seafront, shortly before midnight.
Police are looking into the incident with enquiries underway to ascertain those responsible.
It’s thought that alcohol was taken during the burglary.
Anyone who may have seen or heard anything in relation to this incident should call Police on 101, quoting 44210446792.
Lets hope they can narrow down the suspects as likely to be alcoholics living in Ventnor. Hard for a business to make a living now, without low life taking hard won profits by stealing just because they are too lazy to work for their ‘fix’.
Yes sadly Ventnor has too many people like that, it’s a shame because Ventnor is a lovely up and coming town…
‘Downcoming ‘ more like…
How sad.. I’ve noticed bench dwellers in every town now. Frosty jacks at their feet complaining about how life isn’t fair. Doesn’t really make any difference if they do catch them as they’ll be let out following day with a fine or some fairy tale never going to happen prison sentence.
Thieving Scum should pay for their alcohol if they want it. What gives them the right to break into someone’s business and take it. Hope they are found. Lots of alchies in Ventnor so good luck to the Police.
The police will not spend to much time on this burglary. I work for a company that had all there fence smashed down by a driver, there security showed the driver getting out to check the damage and the car number plate. What did the police do absolutely nothing. Would you believe not enough evidence!!
