A 20-year-old woman from Birmingham has been arrested in connection with the theft of lead from a church in north Suffolk.

The woman was arrested on Wednesday, March 16, in connection with the theft from St Mary's Church in Cratfield, near Halesworth, overnight on December 4 and 5, 2015.

After being interviewed she has been bailed to return to police in Suffolk on Monday May 16.

She has been given bail conditions not to enter Suffolk.
