Police are urging the public to lock up their sheds and garages after a spate of break-ins in the Sale area in the last month.
“Please remain vigilant within this period of dark nights and ensure that alarms are set and gates are locked closed.
“Measures can be taken such as the use of shed alarms, padlocks or security lights outside – please consider their use to increase your security measures.”
Police ask that the public report any suspicious activity by ringing 101 or using the new GMP Live Chat Facility.
