Thieves have stolen £24,000 ($37,500) worth of washing powder and liquid.

Around £16,000 ($25,000) of Bold washing-up liquid and £8,000 ($12,500) of Ariel washing powder was missing after a Bilston warehouse in the West Midlands was targeted.

The robbery took place in two raids which happened over the weekend, reports Express & Star.

A local police spokeswoman stated: "If anyone is offered any cheap detergent or sees large quantities being sold, they should think twice."

12,000 eggs were taken from a chicken farm in August, while 21 tonnes of ketchup and mustard have been reported missing recently.
