Between 6.30pm and 7pm on Friday January 27 another laptop was stolen from an unlocked home in Station Road, Lingwood,

And yesterday morning at 2.30 a Tom Tom Sat Nav was taken from a black Renault Megane parked in a driveway on Lonsdale Road, Rackheath. The vehicle had been left unlocked.

Police are reminding people to keep their homes and cars locked.

Inspector Dave Cuff, from Norfolk police, said: “We are investigating these offences but I would urge residents to take responsibility for securing their own property to prevent this type of offence from occurring.

“It only takes opportunist thieves a few seconds to peer into a vehicle or into your living room and be tempted to steal if expensive items are left on display.”
