Police take part in anti-burglary operation

Police are running an operation to reduce the number of burglaries and bring those responsible before the courts.

The week-long operation will see officers from across a number of districts raise the visible police profile against burglaries and burglars.

This will involve mounting vehicle check points, conducting searches at premises of interest, deploying cash sniffer dogs and providing advice and information to householders and business owners on how to secure their premises.

Speaking to Newry Times, Supt. Paul Reid said, “Police intend to make sure any burglary hotspots are receiving increased attention.”
