Police are appealing for information about three burglaries in Thorpe Hamlet that all happened on the same night this week.

The crimes, in Quebec Road and Primrose Road, were committed between 9.30pm on Tuesday, April 20 and the early hours of Wednesday, April 21.

The burglars broke in to the back of the houses and stole cash, electrical items and motor vehicles.

DC Keith Linstead from Norwich CID said: 'By taking simple steps householders can avoid becoming a victim of crime. Burglaries are often opportunistic crimes so by removing attractive and expensive items from display, such as laptops and car keys, householders can help prevent these crimes from occurring.'

Anyone with information should call 0845 456 4567 or contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
