Thousands of pounds worth of stock has been thrown out of a town's Waitrose after the fridges and freezers were turned off.
Officers from Sudbury Police Station said they were made aware that sometime between September 14 and September 18 a group of youths gained entry to the rear of Waitrose in Sudbury.
It is believed that they gained access through a rear fire escape and used an access ladder to climb onto the roof.
While on the roof switches that power the fridges and freezers in the store were turned off leading to the loss of stock.
A spokesman for Sudbury Police said the stock lost has been priced at around £2,000.
The spokesman added: "This is not only criminal damage but dangerous."
Anyone with any information is being asked to contact Suffolk police quoting the crime reference number 37/52915/24.
