Dear Resident,

We are appealing for information after money and personal items were stolen from a vehicle on Lorne, Street, KIDDERMINSTER.

The theft occurred at 4.30am on Wednesday 15th January 2025 when the items were stolen from the vehicle whilst it was parked on Lorne Street, Kidderminster.

We are keen to hear from anyone who may have any information relating to the theft of these items or that may have been in the area around the time of the incident and heard or seen anything suspicious.

We have also received a report of a person acting suspiciously on Grosvenor Avenue, Kidderminster at 3.55am the same day. A person was seen to be looking in vehicles and trying car door handles.

There are some simple but effective things you can do to help protect your property - where possible remove all valuable items from your vehicle before leaving it unattended.

We are also encouraging the community to call us on 101 if they see anyone acting suspiciously around a vehicle.
