RESIDENTS have been warned to keep a watchful eye on their garages after raids by thieves.
They have appealed for witnesses following a burglary and attempted burglary in Trowbridge.
On Saturday between 1am and 2am unknown offenders stole items from a garage on Painters Mead.
Then at 3am, they received a report of an attempted burglary on a garage in Heeks Crescent.
PC Ben Brown said: "We'd like to hear from anyone who may have heard or seen anything suspicious in these areas at these times.
"This is also a timely reminder for residents to make sure their homes, garages and sheds are secure. Often an unlocked door or insecure gate can be a tempting invite for opportunist thieves."
