A Northamptonshire Police spokesman said: "A man was seen posting magazines into the external letterbox at the residential property between 11.25am on Tuesday (February 15) and noon the following day.

"He returned later and used an unknown implement to steal items from inside the letterbox.

"The next day a woman visited the address and did the same until challenged when she claimed to be delivering post."
