A council headquarters in Cumbria has been raided by burglars.

Allerdale House in Workington was broken into in the early hours yesterday.

Police say those responsible got into the building on New Bridge Street from the road near the roundabout and the Workington Reds stadium, Borough Park.

A Windows laptop, worth around £1,500, was taken from the building, which is the base for Allerdale Council.

The break in happened at around 2.29am on Saturday.

Anyone with information is asked to call police on 101 and quote log number 167 of July 29.
