Police are appealing for the public’s help after one house was targeted by thieves three times in four days.

During the daytime on Saturday, 7 November, an old black boiler was taken from outside the property, on Firwood Whin in Huntington.

Then, between 11.30am and 12.30pm on Sunday, 8 November, a white radiator and stainless steel sink were also taken from outside the property.

Finally, between 11.30am on 11 November and 8am on 12 November, a locked garage was entered and four white radiators stolen, as well as an attempt being made to gain entry to the property through the front door.

One of the stolen radiators is particularly distinctive as it is large and curved.

“In particular, we are appealing for information about any suspicious activity, including descriptions of people and any vehicles seen in and around the address on the dates mentioned.”
