Two homes raided in one day - Home insurance

Posted : 01-08-2008

Immingham's reduction in burglaries has experienced a blip after two homes were robbed in the same day, it has been reported.

Those in the town with household insurance cover may be interested to hear that Immingham saw a massive increase in burglaries in recent month, which the police began to tackle, according to the Grimsby Telegraph.

After extra police officers were deployed burglaries fell by 40 per cent, although this was threatened when two homes were raided yesterday (July 31st).

Sergeant Scott Snowden told the newspaper: "House burglary is a life-altering, very damaging offence."

"At the moment, we are very pleased to report that there has been a substantial reduction - but there is still a long way to go, after two more have occurred in one day."

However he called on members of the public to help police by reporting any suspicious behaviour they notice.

Yesterday, inloughborough.com reported that police in the town have formed a taskforce to fight distraction burglaries.
