Daventry Inspector Jon Lloyd said: “It seems the thieves were targeting vans that were likely to have tools in them. I would urge motorists, wherever possible, to remove all tools and other valuable items from their vehicles when they park, especially overnight.

“We would also like to hear from anyone who may have information about who is committing car crime and anyone who sees anything suspicious should call police on 101 or, if a crime is in progress, call 999. Alternatively, you can call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.

“Also, if anyone other than a reputable dealer tries to sell you cut-price tools then please call us. Remember to note descriptions of those involved and registration numbers.”
