Find jewel thief who stole £10,000,000 from homes with violence.

The Night Watcher, a violent thief who has stolen more than £10 million worth of jewellery, has been linked to four more burglaries. This infamous criminal has now been linked to a total of 17 home raids throughout the south east of England since 2006.

The robber has been known to work alone, targeting isolated properties in affluent areas and using his military training to surveil the homeowners and carry out the attacks. He has been known to take hostages, sometimes while wielding a shotgun, and victims have reported being threatened with a firearm and restrained with cables and ropes.

The Duke and Duchess of Richmond were victims of the Night Watcher in 2016. He attacked their stately home in West Sussex, tying them up and stealing heirlooms worth £700,000. In another break in, the Night Watcher kicked a pregnant woman in the stomach. And in another in Surrey in 2017, Susan Morris suffered a broken jaw and lost a tooth after being attacked with a sawn-off shotgun.

The Night Watcher was caught on CCTV raiding a home in Maidenhead, Berkshire, in 2015. This is the longest period he has gone without offending since his second offence in 2009. A Kent Police spokeswoman said they are investigating five burglaries between November 2016 and January 2022. She also noted that on each occasion, isolated properties were targeted and victims were robbed of cash and possessions.

A timeline of the Night Watcher's robberies is available, with offences in Leatherhead, Surrey (January 2006), Weybridge, Surrey (January 2009 and September 2011), Virginia Water, Surrey (May 2013 and June 2015) Tadworth, Surrey (November 2014 and October 2017), Maidenhead, Berkshire (January 2015), Goodwood, West Sussex (January 2016), Sevenoaks, Kent (November 2016), Maidstone, Kent (January 2017), Reigate, Surrey (February 2019), Tonbridge, Kent (August 2020, September 2021, and January 2022), and Bromley, south east London (October 2021).

It is clear that the Night Watcher has been operating for over a decade and police are working to catch him before he strikes again.
