POLICE have relaunched a campaign aiming to crackdown on burglary, robbery and theft in the local area.
The Be Sure You’re Secure initiative sees officers from Staffordshire Police work to tackle rises in different types of crime, including car thefts in Lichfield.
Detective Chief Inspector Rob Hessell said such incidents had a “significant impact” on victims.
“Our teams are working together to prevent these crimes, bring offenders to justice, provide crime prevention advice, support victims and reassure our communities that we will investigate reports as thoroughly as possible.
“Although we tend to see an increase in these crimes over the winter period, unfortunately they still occur all year round, so we want to encourage people to remain vigilant, report anything suspicious, keep an eye out for each other and if something doesn’t feel right, let us know.”
