“We managed to obtain several pieces of CCTV. This has helped us place movements of offenders and a good facial shot identified a suspect.”
When officers arrested the suspect at his house, a search unearthed a quantity of cannabis, weighing scales, cash, a knife and jewellery.
He was then arrested on suspicion of robbery and burglary offences.
Anyone with information should call South Yorkshire Police on 101 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555111.
