Police investigations have begun into several break-ins at bicycle shops in East Sussex.
Officers were called around 1am on Sunday (December 13) to reports of a burglary at Evolution Cycles, Meads Street, Eastbourne.
According to Sussex Police, the front window to the store had been smashed and an "Evil Wreckoning" full suspension mountain bike in a dark metallic copper colour was taken from inside.
Although the premises were made secure, it was targeted again around 11.30pm that night.
A "Santa Cruz Heckler" electric cycle was taken from the shop on this occasion.
It’s thought those involved in the burglary were travelling in a white transit van.
