- Make sure you have locked your vehicle and your windows are closed too. Don't presume your fob has done its job and take a minute to double check
- Remove your valuables. Even bags, jackets and children toys have value to a thief.
- Consider installing CCTV that covers your property or where your vehicle is parked.
The policing team added: "We urge local residents of Meols who have CCTV footage of anyone acting suspiciously between Sunday 12th March and Monday 13th March to contact us on A.Community.Hub.1@merseyside.police.uk."
