There has been an increase in vans being targeted for tools in parts of the county. Power tools are primarily being targeted. Doors are being prised open and holes being drilled in to locks of the back or side doors.

Please remain vigilant and report suspicious incidents. Do your best to either remove tools when parked up overnight or take steps to implement additional security to the vehicle. Visit the below website for further advice.  

NPT will be carrying out patrols in the Fairford & Lechlade and surrounding areas.
