At least 60 handbags have been seized after a house in Warwick was raided by police.

Officers said the bags were discovered on Sunday alongside sunglasses, rings and a set of air pods - all of which are believed to have been stolen.

Warwickshire Police searched the property after a 32-year-old woman was arrested earlier in the day.

Detectives have asked locals who may be missing any of the items to get in touch.
