Burglars target Kenilworth during January
An Audi was stolen from a house in Butler Close in the early hours of Thursday January 7 after offenders drilled the lock out of a side door of the property. They entered the kitchen and took the keys to the Audi, which was parked on the drive.
There have also been two attempted burglaries reported this month. Between January 9 and 14, offenders attempted to force open the back door of a property in Nason Grove with a crowbar, but were unsuccessful in gaining entry. Although the door was damaged, nothing was stolen.

The neighbourhood watch group Kenilworth Crown Watch is urging residents to keep their eyes open and to report anything suspicious to Warwickshire Police using the non-emergency number 101.
A spokesman for the group said: “If it doesn’t look right then it probably isn’t.”
