BEVERLEY: 12 Houses Burgled In Beverley Area

 

In the past few weeks Humberside Police have had 12 burglaries reported in the Beverley area.

Six of these burglaries were by entry via an open ground floor window or door and have occurred during daylight hours. We want to catch those responsible so if you see anyone or any vehicle acting suspiciously please contact Humberside Police immediately on 999.

If you saw or heard anything in relation to these burglaries please call Humberside Police on telephone number 101 or call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111 quoting Crime Reference CS/2053320/2014.

The police would like to help people to help themselves and to protect their property and contents and would ask you to consider the following advice:

• Keep an eye on you and your neighbours properties
• Never leave doors or windows open (especially ground floor windows)
• Lock your doors even when you are in
• Never leave items on show
• Be vigilant, report anything suspicious and ensure your homes remain secure during the day and night.
• Keep your house and car keys somewhere safe and hidden while you are in bed.

The public have a role to play too by keeping their properties secure, registering property onto www.immobilise.com so it can be identified and returned if lost or stolen and by calling Humberside Police with information about criminality.

You are encouraged to call the police if they see people acting suspiciously in their community, if there is a burglary in progress or if they have details about those involved in criminality and can do this using 999 in an emergency, 101 in a non emergency or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
