A One Stop convenience store in Lowestoft is currently closed after an attempted break-in during the night.

The shop on Westwood Avenue is expected to reopen soon after being closed following the incident and wrapped in police tape this morning.

Would-be thieves attempted to break in via the store's front window but were unsuccessful.

A staff member said: "The store should reopen shortly, we had an attempted break-in last night but we had the shutters down so we were quite lucky really."
