Subscriber only
GLADSTONE region residents have been targeted by thieves, with 20 break-in and theft offences recorded in the past week.
Gladstone Police Sergeant Wayne Butcher said the number of offences committed while entering unlocked and insecure premises was “concerning”.
“I would advise the community to be proactive in locking and securing vehicles and hide vehicle and dwelling keys in areas that are out of sight and harder to get and find,” Sgt Butcher said.
“CCTV has been invaluable in solving a vast majority of the offending and is a valuable tool in finalising matters.”
