Vehicle Interference

Good Afternoon Resident, 

We have been made aware via social media and due to reports of vehicle interference overnight. That there has been an unknown male trying door handles of cars and gaining entry to vehicles. 

We are asking residents to review any CCTV footage or ring doorbell in the following area: AVONDALE ROAD, ST ALBANS ROAD, FRANCES STREET and FREDERICK STREET between the hours of 02:00hrs - 04:00hrs on the 4th DECEMBER 2025. If you do have any footage please contact us on 101 quote the log number LC-20251204-0248.

We would urge residents to report any instances of vehicle interference to us by calling 101 to enable us to identify this male and to allow us to take the appropriate investigative action. If you are made aware of any social media posts of this nature we would request that this information is to be noted on the posts so we can gain all the information and footage available.

In the lead up to the festive season, please continue to lock your vehicles and remove valuables.

Thank you for your assistance,

Darwen Neighbourhood Policing Team
