Residents are being encouraged to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activity to the police immediately.
The police added:
“We urge you to check any sheds / outbuildings for their security. The incidents have been in the very early hours of the morning and there have been a number of garden tools / power tools and bikes stolen.
Please remain vigilant, and if you notice any suspicious behaviour in the early hours please contact us as a matter of urgency.”
