RAIDERS made off with hundreds of pounds worth of baby equipment from a Kidderminster shop - exactly a month after it opened.

When the owner of Baby Comforts, Blackwell Street, arrived to open up the shop last Friday she found it had been broken into.

Tracy Neale, daughter of Christine Walker, the shop's owner, said: "They have taken everything from car seats to prams and buggies."

She said the raiders had to clamber over a six feet high wall at the rear of the premises to get in.

She went on: "It's basically cleaned out three-quarters of the stock."

Mrs Neale said the burglary had come as a blow to her mother as it was her first business.

"She has tried to build the business up from scratch. She built it up to a good standard but it's all been taken away from her.

"She has tried to do something for the community, then she gets broken into."
