POLICE have launched an appeal to find a man they want to speak to in connection with a burglary.

The appeal comes after a white Mercedes A200 was taken in a residential burglary in late May.

A spokesperson for West Yorkshire Police said: "Police in Kirklees are appealing for information to help locate Shafeeq Ahmed who they want to talk to in connection with a residential burglary in which a white Mercedes A200 car was stolen from Hanging Heaton in the early hours of May 27.
