APPEAL | Footage sought following burglary series
Detectives have launched an investigation into a series of burglaries which have occurred in East Cornwall.
As part of our investigation, we are seeking dashcam footage from anyone who was driving along Well Lane, which is the main road between St Cleer and Tramar in Liskeard on Monday 20 October.
One of the incidents took place between 7.20am and 2.10pm on Monday 20 October at a property on Well Lane in St Cleer, with another occurring between 9.30am and 1pm on Trecarne view, St Cleer. In both incidents, jewellery and cash was stolen.
Detective Inspector Claire Nicholls said: “We believe that both incidents are part of a wider burglary series in the area. Many of the incidents have taken place in Liskeard, but we also have reports of burglaries in Pelynt, Looe, Widegates, Menheniot and Polbathic.
“The incidents have increased in the past few weeks with thieves targeting rural and secluded properties often in the daytime. Many of the incidents result in jewellery and cash being taken.
“We are asking residents to come forward with any information, particularly if they have doorbell camera footage.
“We are also reminding locals to be vigilant about home safety, ensuring homes are secure. Please see further home safety advice here.
“If you have any information, please contact police via the Force website or telephone 101, quoting master crime reference number 50250281114.
“Alternatively, independent charity Crimestoppers can be contacted anonymously online at crimestoppers-uk.org or by calling freephone 0800 555 111.”
