Thieves have stolen equipment worth thousands of pounds from a fire station in Leicestershire.
Thermal imaging cameras and specialist cutting tools were among items taken from the base in Wilfred Place, Ashby-de-la-Zouch, on 21 September.
Chargers, batteries and equipment used by firefighters for road traffic collisions were also stolen.
Leicestershire Police has appealed for anyone with information about the break-in to get in touch.
