Three men forced their way into a property in Hove and threatened those inside during a robbery earlier this week, Sussex Police said this afternoon (Friday 3 March).
The force said: “Detectives are seeking the public’s help to try to identify a man who they want to speak to in relation to a robbery in Hove.
“Between 3.10am and 3.25am on Tuesday (28 February), three men forced the front door of an address in Kingsway, Hove.
“Once inside, they forcefully confined the occupants of the address to their bedrooms while they searched the house for things to steal.”
