Police in Wiltshire are offering advice to drivers following a spate of van break-ins across the county.

They say there's been more than 30 cases recently.

It's believed vehicles in Hampshire, Dorset, and Somerset are being targeted by the same group.

PC Rachel Gunn, who is part of Salisbury’s Neighbourhood Policing Team, said: “We are doing all we can to identify the individuals who are part of the group committing these offences.

“Also, we’re working closely with our neighbouring forces to share intelligence and ultimately bring these criminals to justice.”

Anyone with information is being urged to contact officers on 101.
