We want to reassure residents we are doing everything we can to trace and find out who this vehicle belongs to . 

If you’ve seen anything suspicious or have information that might help with enquires, please call 101. 

We would also like to ask residents to please call it in on 999 whilst it is happening rather than putting it on social media, we do not police these. Also please note the criminals may also be reading these posts so are aware that you may have called us.

The information we receive from the public is essential in bringing criminals to justice. 

Important advice and information:

Car key burglary is when an offender breaks into a home with the specific aim of stealing car keys and the vehicle from the property.

Perpetrators often target specific vehicles, based on demand and value. If a criminal is targeting a certain vehicle, they will also be targeting the owner, looking for easy ways to exploit their security and get to their keys. 

If you think you are being followed or see any suspicious vehicles lurking, take the registration number and report it to us.

Thank you for your help. It is only by the police and the public working together that we can prevent and detect crime. 

Kind regards,

Pcso Mandy Leek - Bridgnorth and Rural East safer neighbourhood team .
