We would like to remind residents that there has recently been an increase in motorbike thefts across the Cannock and Rugeley areas. We are asking members of the public to remain vigilant and report any suspicious behaviour, individuals or vehicles to police.
Motorbike owners are encouraged to take additional steps to protect their vehicles, including:
- Never leaving keys in the motorbike, even for a short period of time.
- Always remove the keys and securing the steering lock.
- Using a high-quality disc lock, chain and ground anchor where possible.
- Parking in well-lit, secure or CCTV-covered locations.
- Installing a tracking device or alarm system.
- Covering the motorbike when parked to make it less attractive to thieves.
Anyone with information regarding suspicious activity or vehicle thefts is asked to contact Staffordshire Police via 101, online, or call 999 in an emergency if a crime is in progress.
