Police have released e-fit images of men they want to speak to in connection with the theft of a Chihuahua.

Bailey was reported stolen from her home in Cleves Way, Ashford on Wednesday, August 10, between 11am and 1.15pm.

Incredibly, the pet was returned after a heartfelt Facebook plea to leave her in the garden 'no questions asked' but officers are still keen to trace her captors.

The thieves also made off with cash and jewellery, both of which are still missing.

Officers have now released images of two men they want to trace who were reported to be in the area at the time.

One man is described as white, aged 20 to 25 years old, 5ft 8 ins tall with a medium build. He had black hair and wore blue or black jeans and a black jumper.

The second man is described as aged 20 to 25 years old, white, 6ft tall with a slim build. He had ginger hair and wore blue or black jeans with a brown jumper.

Anyone with information on who these men might be is asked to call Detective Constable Jacqui Mennie on 01303 289406 quoting ZY/27748/16, or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555111.
