Emerging Trend - Burglaries

Good morning.

You will have seen my last message which included one burglary took place in Earlswood last month. 

Yesterday (Oct 3rd) we had a further two new reports of burglaries to residential properties. Both of these were in Earlswood area. 

We notice in all three instances, offenders have smashed through glass to gain entry.

On two of the three instances, they were disturbed and ran from the scene. 

Descriptions were of up to 5 males in black clothing, potentially teenagers but this isn't confirmed. 

The working assumption is that the same individuals are responsible for all three crimes. 

Please keep properties locked, use your burglar alarms and be vigilant. Be aware that two of the three instances occurred during day light. 

Police enquiries are on going.
