This follows other reports of car owners in Redhouse and Abbey Meads having items stolen from their vehicles during the weekend of November 11 and 12.

A Wiltshire Police spokesperson said: "We would like to take the opportunity to remind people to make sure their cars are secure and all valuables have been taken indoors, especially as the winter evenings draw in, which makes it easier for thieves to take advantage under the cover of darkness.

"If you can help with information, please give us a call on 101 and quote crime reference 54230119725.

"Thank you."
