This is Bristol

It may be the season of goodwill, but the latest two suspects in the Evening Post Badvent calendar showed none at all when they allegedly committed their crimes.

Police are trying to trace a man believed to have burgled McDonald's at Abbey Wood, stealing a toolkit from a staff-only area. The crime happened at about 6.15pm on Thursday, December 10 and the young man was wearing a grey hooded top with blue writing on the front.

Behind our 21st door is a middle-aged, grey-haired man who drove off without paying for £51 of petrol from the Shell garage at Cribbs Causeway, on Saturday, November 21.

The Evening Post is publishing CCTV images of men and women wanted for crimes across the Bristol area in a bid to catch them.

Detective Chief Inspector Stephen Tunks, of Avon and Somerset police, said: "CCTV is a great tool for the police to help us identify witnesses and offenders when crime has been committed.

"Sometimes we need the public and the media's help to identify the people we need to speak to for help with our investigations. We're grateful to the Evening Post for offering this opportunity to ask for the public's help in solving these crimes."

On Saturday, we showed a man casually filling his car up with petrol at the Asda garage at Cribbs Causeway before driving off without paying the £55 bill, at about 6.45am on Wednesday, December 2.

Anyone who recognises today's suspect should call Crimestoppers on 0800 555111, or South Gloucestershire police direct on 08454 567000. The references for the latest two suspects are 444D and 445D.
