POLICE used a helicopter to try to catch burglars who struck in Newsome.
The aircraft was brought in yesterday afternoon after reports of a break-in at a house in New Laithe Hill.
A group of young men, possibly three or four, were seen running towards the woods at Longley.
Officers were backed by the West Yorkshire police helicopter to carry out a search.
A TV was recovered a short distance away, and inquiries are continuing to trace the suspects.
