Thefts from motor vehicles in Southport. Police issue warning

Two thefts from motor vehicles have taken place within the last week on Rookery Road and Rawlinson Road in Southport, while a man has been captured on CCTV in the driveway of another home in the same nearby area. 

At present, the only CCTV image we have is not of value to us however, more images are coming to us very soon. All of these crimes have been reported as overnight thefts and in the image we have seen so far the man was captured on CCTV at 04:20am.

At present we believe the same person is likely to be responsible for these incidents, and that this is a different offender from a theft from a car which occurred in Birkdale recently, which is also under investigation.

Please ensure that you check that vehicles are locked before you go to bed and that NOTHING of value is left inside, not even some loose change.  Should you find that your vehicle has been broken into, please always report the crime. Your report could make the difference.
