Police are investigating a spate of burglaries and attempted break-ins.

Wrexham rural inspector Steve Owens has appealed for information about incidents that took place overnight on Saturday to Sunday.

Items including an iPad were stolen from a home in Taunton Way, Llwyn Onn Park, after entry was gained by smashing a window pane.

A break-in also took place at a shed on Llwyn Onn Park, although no items were stolen.

Insp Owens added that a number of locks were broken at stables in Ridleywood, but it is thought those carrying out the offence were disturbed and made off without stealing anything.

A chainsaw and strimmer were taken from a workshop in Frog Lane, Holt and two doors were damaged on a similar building nearby, although nothing was taken.

Anyone with information should call contact North Wales Police on 101, quoting RC18023036 (Llwyn Onn Park shed); AC024001 (Taunton Way break -in); RC18024125 (Ridleywood stables), RC18024183 for the Frog Lane burglary and RC18024185 for the attempted break in on the same street.
