How are burglars getting into your apartment building?You might be surprised!

The Wellington Police team wants you to know about the following:

"In the last couple of weeks Police have received reports of burglaries to apartments / tower buildings where access has been gained through unlocked doors/ ranch sliders or windows of the upper levels.

Person/s are taking advantage of close adjacent buildings/ scaffolding and/or fences to reach upper level balconies to get into an address. Small high valued items that can be carried on person are being targeted.
No matter what floor/level you are on ...ensure all windows and doors are locked, and that electronic / high valued items are secured away when not in use.

And finally - make sure you report anything suspicious to 105 or if in an emergency 111."
