LOUGHTON: Laptops stolen in school raid
5:32pm Tuesday 22nd February 2011
THIEVES stole laptops worth £32,000 from a primary school.
The computers were stolen from Thomas Willingale Primary School in The Broadway, Loughton.
Essex Police say a rear door was forced open during the raid, before 16 Tulip and 16 NEC laptops were taken.
Police say two men were seen hanging around the school earlier that day and have urged anyone who saw them or were in the area at the time of the theft to contact them.
The burglary took place between 7pm and 8pm on Friday, February 18, just hours after the school broke up for half-term.
Kim Clarke, of Colebrook Lane in Loughton, has two children at the school.
Mrs Clarke, 41, said: “My daughter Shannon is in year four and she goes down to the computer room for lessons at least once or twice a week, she thoroughly enjoys it.
“It's awful that these people did this. Who steals from a primary school?”
Anyone with information should call PC Carroll at Loughton police station on 0300 333 4444, or call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.

The Senate approved a continuing resolution today to fund the government through March 4 that includes a two-year pay freeze for all civilian federal employees. The House is expected to vote on the measure before the current resolution expires at midnight tonight.
