Plant and diesel thefts on the up

A rise in the number of thefts of both plant machinery and diesel in rural parts of the borough have prompted Ballymena PSNI to urge owners to secure their property.

Commenting on the situation, Inspector John Allen said: “We are asking members of the public to revisit their security to help prevent having their property stolen.

“Should they need to they can contact police at Ballymena and organise a visit from the Crime Prevention Officer who can call out with them and give an assessment,” he said.

The number to ring is 0845 600 8000.
