Police have released a CCTV image of a man they want to speak to following an attempted burglary in Dover.

Yesterday, between 3am and 6am, a resident in Old Charlton Road reported hearing noises coming from the outside of her property.

She told police and then saw a man attempting to break in and challenged the suspect.

At first he claimed to be police, but then ran away from the house.

Officers have conducted a number of inquiries and are now appealing for help to identify the man in the image who may be able to assist with the investigation.

Anyone who has information or who recognises the man is asked to call police on 01843 222289 quoting 46/22504/19.
