BURGLARS broke in and stole two computers and lead from the roof from Dame Alice Owen’s School in Potters Bar this morning (Tuesday).

Police are appealing for information after the raid at the Dugdale Hill Lane site.

The incident took place at 1.30am when the crooks forced entry through two windows in the music block and stole Apple Mac computers and keyboards.

Additionally, if you know who is responsible I would urge you to call police.”
