Police are urging residents to lock their doors and, if they are going out in the evening, to make sure a light is left on.

Sharon Holmes, community ward sergeant, said: “The houses are unlocked and so the person responsible appears to be opportunist, trying doors and gaining entry through the night.

“We are following a positive line of enquiry at present, however residents are being asked to remain vigilant and if they see anything suspicious please call 101 or, in emergency, 999.”
