POLICE are urging people to share dashcam and CCTV footage after a flurry of overnight car key burglaries in Newton-le-Willows.

Officers say they have had several burglaries reported to them this morning which occurred sometime overnight.

This included two households which had an Audi stolen, and police believe the offenders have been targeting specific vehicles to steal.

They then broke into the properties, either by forcing patio locks or a back door in order to to take the keys then drive away in the vehicle.

Two of the burglaries took place at Kingsway, along with other properties which were targeted on Makerfied Drive and Cromwell Close.

St Helens Police said: "Please share and check CCTV and dashcams in case you can help us identify the offender(s)."
