POLICE are appealing for information following two incidents on the same night where items were stolen from vehicles.
Overnight on March 9 to 10 the window of a pick-up truck parked in Clay Street in Whiteparish was smashed and landscaping tools were stolen, including chainsaws and leafblowers.
On the same night a van parked on Netherhampton Road had a window smashed and a wallet stolen.
PC Darren Penny said: “I would like to hear from anyone with information regarding these incidents and would particularly like to speak to anyone who has been offered landscaping tools for sale.
“Vehicle owners can help prevent crimes such as these by ensuring that nothing of value is left in their vehicles when unattended, even if they are only leaving them for a few minutes.”
Anyone with information about these incidents should contact PC Penny at Salisbury police station on 101 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
