Power tools and gasoline are the target of thieves in the Thamesford area. Oxford OPP say they are investigating a rash of break-ins of out buildings and sheds between February 8th and 10th. In total, 8 sheds have been hit with a number of items being taken. Police believe the suspect or suspects are using a vehicle to get from home to home and in one case, used a garage door opener that was left in an unlocked vehicle. A contractor's trailer was also broken into at a home under construction on Road #68 where all of the power tools in the trailer and home were stolen. Police are reminding the public to lock their doors and keep a watchful eye out for suspicious activity and when in doubt, call and have Police check it out (Crime Stoppers 1-888-222-TIPS).
