Police are now warning residents not to display high-value items and valuables in their cars following the series of crimes.

PCSO Ben Howard said: ‘Please ensure that you lock your vehicles every time you leave it, double lock if appropriate and remove valuable items, including any cradles for satnavs or phones, as this may indicate that there is one in the vehicle.’

Police are appealing for witnesses to call 101.
