A gang of thieves broke into a supermarket in the village centre stealing cigarettes and a laptop.
Waitrose was raided at approximately 1.25am on Monday, 2nd September, by four big men who were wearing masks.
They broke in through the rear door of the store, by-passed the alarm system and caused thousands of pounds worth of damage.
The offenders, who were all described as being very large men, were captured on CCTV scouting the property at about 9pm on Sunday 1st September.
A spokesperson for CID said "During the early hours of yesterday morning unknown offenders forced entry into Waitrose. They stole a quantity of cigarettes and a laptop and then made off."
Anyone with any information about this incident should contact PC Humpage at Wilmslow CID on 101.

Here's what readers have had to say so far. Why not add your thoughts below.
When we elected a 'Police and Crime Commissioner' I hoped that matters would improve (are you reading this John? where are our 500 special constables?).
Have you seen the Police Inspector lady around the village?
Please excuse me, I'm off to find a brick wall to beat my head against!
1) the council, if the rails had been cut not just broken as they said, would mention it to Railtrack ????
2) The police, if it was a burglary through the back and no CCTV showing them fleeing then as it backs onto the railway did they not look at it?
As for no one answering, this is a common problem found by residents & so we should ask the Chief Constable to come and talk to the PC, and we can report back.
the Council (CE) Park Officers told me that they would indeed take the matter up with the railway people. As to what the police looked at? Dunno.
