Burglars broke into a house on a Nantwich estate and then made off with two cars parked on the driveway.

The offenders struck at a property on Chater Drive, on the Pear Tree Fields estate in Stapeley.

The burglars also stole a set of keys to the property during the incident overnight (October 23-24)

Nantwich police officers have today been issuing letters warning residents of the incident and to make sure properties are securely locked.

Insp Dave Smithers, head of Nantwich Neighbourhood Policing Unit, said: “We have had patrols out putting leaflets through doors.

“This was a burglary but the offenders took the keys and stole the vehicles parked on the drive.

“This is a very unusual occurrence in Nantwich, and there is nothing to suggest it will be repeated so we don’t want to cause alarm.

“But we are sending out letters to offer general crime prevention advice as a result.”

Detectives from Crewe CID are investigating the incident.
