Police have issued advice

Tools and a sum of money were taken from 'insecure vehicle' in Bembridge last Friday, officers said.

And PCSO Katy Balaam, who covers Brookside, said: "By following certain advice, you can help prevent opportunist thieves from striking."

She advised motorists to never leave anything on show, close all windows and the sun roof and not to store valuable items in the boot.

"Find a safe place for your keyless entry key at home and check to ensure they are out of range of your vehicle," she added.
