The burglary is thought to have happened between Friday 20 June and Sunday 22 June. The house on the Kilgad Road, Ballymena was unoccupied since Mr Campbell went missing around three years ago.

Intruders are thought to have forced entry through a window to the back of the house and took a number of items including a Sony camcorder. The camcorder is particularly cherished by the family as it contains footage of Mr Campbell taken during Christmas celebrations. There is no copy of this footage available.
