POLICE are looking for a woman who took a bag of shopping from a bar in Bishop Auckland.

A male customer at Bar Mondos on Forebondgate left a shopping bag at his table whilst he talked to a friend nearby at 1.50pm on April 17.

A woman carrying bright pink washing basket and several bags entered soon after, and as she left, a staff member handed her the man’s bag, believing it was hers.

She took it and left, but has not returned the bag, which contained black Nike running shorts, and a Sony PS3 game, 007 Quantam of Solace.

The woman is described as white, aged 45 to 50, between 5ft 2ins and 5ft 6ins tall, of stocky build, with straight brown bobbed hair.

Anyone with information should call Crimestoppers on 0800-555-111.
