Mid Ulster police warn householders to be vigilant after oil is stolen from tank at property in Moneymore

They are appealing to residents to report anything suspicious – unknown vehicles, people calling door to door, or activity around their tanks – by contacting the 101 number, or 999 in an emergency.

Police say householders can secure their tanks with a good quality lock, screening their tank, or installing an oil level alarm to alert you to sudden drops.
