Warning after vehicle crime

It follows reports of incidents in the Havant area '“ specifically in Barncroft and Bedhampton '“ in which windows have been smashed to gain access to cars before thieves steal items inside them. 

In a warning issued on Friday, Havant PCSO Ben Howard urged vehicle owners to stay vigilant. 

He said: '˜This is a reminder to remove all valuables from your vehicle before you lock it. This includes things such as loose change, any sat navs or cables that may indicate a sat nav is used. It also includes dash cams, as these were items taken from the recent series.'
