Drivers living in certain areas of Merseyside are being warned by police after a number of car thefts and thefts from vehicles.
On Monday, Merseyside Police confirmed it was investigating car key thefts in Southport after an Audi and BMW were both stolen. In both cases the cars were taken after offenders forced the lock of rear doors/patio doors of homes to gain entry and steal the car keys.
In a similar incident of attempted burglary, car keys were stolen but not the car. CCTV is currently being examined from the incidents and others that police believe may be connected.
