“I can assure local residents that we’re actively carrying out a number of enquiries to investigate these thefts and we’re working hard to take robust action against those responsible for these crimes in Staffordshire.”
Anyone who saw anything suspicious in the area or may have relevant CCTV, dashcam or doorbell footage should contact us on 101, quoting incident number 138 of 16 February.
