POLICE are investigating after a spate of overnight car break-ins around the Branksome Park area at the weekend.
Residents of Tower Road and Motcombe Road reported the incidents on Sunday morning after finding thieves had smashed the windows of their vehicles before stealing items from inside.
Officers believe the cars – a yellow Suzuki, blue Ford Focus, blue Vauxhall Corsa, silver Skoda and silver Mazda – were targeted between 8pm on Saturday and 9am on Sunday.
A Dorset Police spokesperson said enquiries are ongoing and no arrests have yet been made.
She said witnesses or anybody with information about the break-ins should call Dorset Police, quoting incident number 13:118.
Alternatively, call the free and anonymous Crimestoppers line on 0800 555 111, where mobile phone tariffs may apply.
