THIEVES struck at a Flixton garden centre - making off with a 15ft inflatable Santa.
The three crooks broke into J Parkers Garden Centre last Thursday night to make off with the inflatable Father Christmas, which is a popular attraction for the nursery's customers.
They were captured on CCTV carrying out the theft.
After three attempts they managed to get the giant inflatable over the nursery's gates.
David Willett, assistant manager at the Carrington Road nursery, said staff and customers had been hit by the theft.
He said; "They are all upset about it.
"A lot of our customers have had photos of their children taken with it."
Anyone with information about the theft can contact police on 101 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111
