Olney. These burglaries have taken place during the day and night, with the residents either being in bed or out of the house when it has taken place. These experienced criminals are taking out patio doors to enter houses and are leaving with car keys (and the car!) TVʼs, Laptops, Playstations and so on.
Steps to Prevent being burgled:
soon as anyone walks by as a deterrent. Install CCTV (fake or a real one) once again this will be a major deterrent for a burglar. Please remember Olney has a very low crime rate and with everyoneʼs help we can keep it that way.

Descriptions on Facebook indicate that the culprits are driving a white van, one man being of an Asian appearance and one white man with an unshaven look. Please watch out for suspicious behaviour and warn neighbours especially the vulnerable or elderly. If you do see anything suspicious take down the registration number of the vehicle and a description of the person and call the police. Notice
Keep doors, windows and gates locked when possible.
Make sure your car has nothing of great value on display such as sat navs; have your car keys hidden well in your house or take them upstairs with you when you go to bed. Close curtains and leave a light on when you are not in.
