Burglaries in the area

Dear Resident,

You may be aware from previous message alerts of burglaries in the area. 

There has been a burglary yesterday 2nd December between 5:30 - 6:40pm on Cockthorpe Close.

Offenders had made two points of entry. It appeared that first point of entry was a door to a side out building which was connected to the main house. 

Offenders had made entry here by snapping the lock and then attempted to gain entry to a locked door into the kitchen, which was unsuccessful. 

It appeared that offenders then returned outside and forced open a kitchen window, where entry was then gained into the main house.
