It is believed he took a mobile phone and some car keys which were left on top of the car parking machine in the Orange short stay car park.

It happened in the morning of Thursday, July 31. Another passenger accidently left his keys and phone on top of the machine. They were then picked up by somebody else and not handed into the lost property office.

The man in the photograph had quite a distinctive car, police have said. It was a blue Daihatsu Charade type of vehicle with bright red/orange alloy wheels. It is possible that it has foreign number plates.

Anybody who recognises the man has been asked to contact Pc Chaveli Basaras at Stansted via Essex Police 101 or they can call independent charity Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
