I've just heard third hand so can't verify the facts but apparently there are guys going around in a van breaking the allotment gate locks and then breaking into individual sheds. They are looking for power tools such as strimmers and rotovators not just spades and forks etc. If they can't get through the door then they get through the roof or window. Apparently the allotments on Cross Lane, Wallasey have been hit recently.
Sorry I can't give any further info or confirm facts but please keep an eye out for anyone suspicious and keep you power tools at home.

Dad's got broken into his is behind Central Park... They have got special tools as dads had the welding off his locks damaged.

That's why I gave up my allotment.

Garden sheds have been broken into in moreton aswell, scumbags

Thats why i dont have a shed . a couple of old tools left down there (not worth nicking) and bring anything else i need. Hope they catch the thieving scumbags

I heard that the allotments near Tam O Shanty farm bidston were also broken into about 3wks ago. Again power tools taken left the typical garden tools behind.

Damage and inconvenience.

Hope they catch them.

Don't know if it's linked but had two men knock before asking if I wanted my garden doing I live in wallasey by dock rd

one was 6f 1" in 3 1/4 white shorts and no top on and the other one was about 5f 7" black pants and light blue t-shirt and have a lisp

could not see a van/car when I opened the door, but one had loppers green handles.

OMG they steal anything these days, hide your garden gnomes people!

What type of crime would breaking into sheds etc be classified as now?
Burglary or something else - no crime possibly?
