THIEVES broke in to a Cumbrian home - then drove off in one of the family's cars.
The burglary happened at a house in Cypress Way, Penrith, in the early hours of Monday morning.
The thieves stole two sets of car keys - one for the residents' BMW 320D saloon car, which was then stolen.
The keys for a Volvo were also taken, but not the vehicle.
The BMW was found later that day in Lancashire.
Also taken during the burglary was a Scott mountain bike, which has not yet been recovered.
The burglars entered the home through a back window.
Police are urging the public to ensure windows and doors are kept locked to prevent this type of crime from occurring.
Officers are also appealing for witnesses. Call Carlisle CID on 101 quoting log number 30 of August 21.
