AN IMAGE of a man wanted by police after a car was allegedly stolen from Yardley has been released.
West Midlands Police said the white Volkswagan had been listed for sale online, and a man who claimed he was interested in buying the car went to the owner’s house for a test drive.
It added that while the owner was distracted outside the vehicle, the man drove the car away.
The incident happened on February 20 and police have launched the appeal.
West Midlands Police said: “It’s believed the same car was later used in a number of other vehicle crimes in the Coventry, Warwickshire and Leicestershire areas.”
Anyone who recognises the man should contact police on 101 or via Live Chat on the force’s website and quote 20/154332/26.
