Police have arrested a man wanted in connection with a ram-raid burglary in Bolton-le-Sands.

The burglary happened at the Spar garage in Coastal Road, Bolton-le-Sands, at around 2.27am on September 7, with a substantial quantity of goods stolen and £10,000 worth of damage caused.

Last week police put out an appeal for anyone who had seen 26-year-old Niall Thompson, who has links to Lancaster and Morecambe as well as the Liverpool area, to get in touch.

And they have now reported that Thompson has been arrested and is currently in custody.

They have thanked everyone who shared police appeals to find him.
