Did you witness cars being stolen in Southampton at around 1 am on 4 May?
A group of men stole a turquoise Audi A1 (69 plate) from Cemetery Lane and a black Jaguar F-PACE v6 (12 plate) from Alma Road while the drivers were inside the vehicles.
They asked both drivers to get out of their vehicles and then drove off with them. The driver of the Audi A1 also had his phone and wallet stolen.
