Police are appealing for information after a number of cars were broken into at the weekend in Dundee.

Most of the incidents took place in the Hilltown and Fairmuir areas on Friday night/Saturday morning.

In Thistle Street, an attempt was made to break into a Vauxhall Corsa.

Entry was not gained, but the car sustained damage from a screwdriver or similar item that was used to try and gain entry.

In Park Road, a Vauxhall Combi van had a Samsung PDS stolen from it, and at the same address a VW Polo had a Sony stereo stolen from it.

In Sherbrook Street, a Vauxhall Corsa was broken into, again causing some damage to the car from a screwdriver or similar tool. Some CDs, cash, and fancy dress costumes were stolen from the car.

In another incident sometime in the early hours of Sunday, a black Audi A1 was broken into using a similar method in Mortimer Street.

This time, the person responsible stole what was actually a bag of rubbish, but the car was left damaged.

A spokesperson for the Tayside division of Police Scotland said: “We would like to remind residents to please ensure as best possible that their cars are fully secured overnight, and not to leave anything visible in the main cabin of the car that is, or could appear to be, valuable.

“If you have any information that could assist our enquiries, please call 101 or speak with any police officer. Also, information can be given anonymously through Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111. Our reference is incident 1020of 11th January.”
