Men with 'Liverpudlian accents' sought for Shropshire hotel burglaries
Two men are being sought by police in Shropshire following two burglaries at hotels in the county.
Police have released images of two men they are keen to speak to in relation to the break-ins.
Officers say the first incident occurred on Monday,, August 4 shortly after midnight, when the Clive Arms in Ludlow was broken into.
The offenders forced entry through a door but nothing was stolen.
On the same night, shortly before 2.30am, the Castle Hotel in Bishops Castle was also broken into. The offenders stole £500.
Those pictured are described as aged around 50, and it was reported they spoke with Liverpudlian accents.
It is believed they were a black MG6 Golf or a car which looked similar.
