Police are asking householders in Oadby to report any suspicious activity, following a number of recent burglaries or attempted burglaries.
There have been seven break-ins in the area over the past three weeks.
Inspector Jed Keen, commander of the Oadby and Wigston local policing unit, said: “Oadby has a relatively low burglary rate, and we are working hard to keep it that way.
“However, we have seen a number of burglaries in residential parts of the area over the past three weeks, mainly during daytimes.
“We are carrying out extra uniformed patrols and covert work in the area in order to deter further burglaries or catch the culprits. If you see anyone acting suspiciously, please call us immediately on 999.”
Officers from Charnwood local policing unit are appealing for public help after a motocross bike was stolen from Thurmaston.
The Suzuki RM250 motocross bike was stolen from a communal bike shed in Checkland Road, Thurmaston sometime between 5.30am on Wednesday August 25 and 2pm on Thursday August 26.
Taking very basic precautions greatly reduces your chances of being victim of burglary, according to police on south Leicestershire.
In the past seven days, more than half of the home burglaries or attempted burglaries in south Leicestershire were due to offenders entering a property through unlocked doors or windows, or talking their way in.
