Detectives in Lisburn are appealing for information following a car theft in the Crumlin area and two 'creeper' burglaries that occurred in the Lower Ballinderry area in the early hours of Monday 26 May.

In the first incident, a silver Peugeot 107 was stolen from the Crumlin area and was later located in The Old Stables area of Lower Ballinderry. It is believed that at approximately 00:55, a set of car keys was stolen from a house in this area and a grey Ford Mondeo was taken.

Then, at about 03:00, it was reported that a man was attempting to steal a stereo from a car in the Ashcroft Way area of Lower Ballinderry. The man fled the scene when he was disturbed by the owner of the car.

Later, at about 03:35, it was reported that car keys were stolen from a house in the Brooke Lodge area of Lower Ballinderry and a black Alfa Romeo was stolen. The grey Ford Mondeo was located and recovered from this location.

The Alfa Romeo is yet to be recovered.
