Detective Constable Simon Goulding said: “We believe this series of burglaries are linked and we are urging anyone with information or any witnesses to contact us.

“We are also advising householders to lock all doors and windows even if you are in the back garden, consider installing an intruder alarm, mark your valuables by using your postcode, leave some lights on if it will be dark before you get home and fit security lighting.”

If you witnessed any suspicious behaviour or have any information about the burglaries contact police online or ring 101 quoting serial 490 of 08/11.
