Spalding police are warning residents to lock up following a rise in house burglaries.
PCSO Paul Coupland, from the Spalding estates policing team, said he’s done extensive patrols today (Thursday) and found a number of unlocked garages and outbuildings.
He said: “It takes seconds for someone to go into your open garage and insecure outbuildings and take your property.
“Don’t make it easy for them – lock-up and shut up.”
