A burglary at a home in Newcastle resulted in the theft of £100,000 in gold, according to an article published on 6 April 2026 by Chroniclelive. The incident was caught on camera by a baby monitor in the property, providing a visual record of the theft as it unfolded.

The case highlights the value of surveillance devices in documenting criminal activity, even when they are installed primarily for childcare purposes. For homeowners, installing visible security measures such as cameras, alarm system signs, and ensuring properties are well-lit and secure can deter burglars and aid law enforcement if a break-in occurs.
