Police in Limassol arrested a 45-year-old male burglary suspect after photos of the stolen goods were posted online in an effort to sell them.

Authorities were also seeking a second man, 37, in connection with the theft.

The two are suspected of breaking into a house last Sunday and stealing various items, including a vintage motorcycle and vintage musical instruments.

Investigators found out that photos of the stolen items were posted on the internet with the intent to sell them.

Police were led to the two suspects and officers raided their houses on Thursday, retrieving the stolen property.

Officers who searched the home of the 37-year-old found a double bass, but the suspect could not be located.

In the afternoon, the motorcycle, a guitar amplifier, and a synthesizer were found in an empty plot near the house of the 45-year-old man, who was detained.
