TWO men were charged with attempted burglary last night after the second bungled raid on a North-East post office in a few weeks.
The men, from Bishop Auckland, in County Durham, were arrested after police were called to Tindale Crescent in the early hours of yesterday.
Detectives believe others fled from the scene and appealed for help from the public last night.
They want to hear from anyone who saw anyone acting suspiciously near the post office in the past few days.
In November thieves fled empty handed after setting off the post office's alarm.
Any witnesses should call police on (01388) 603566.
