There have been at least fifteen vehicle related crimes in the Callington, Saltash and Torpoint areas in one day.

Callington Officer Sgt. John Frazer said: "We believe these crimes were carried out by travelling criminals from the Plymouth area but we need to know exactly who they are. If anyone has information or saw anything suspicious we would ask them to contact us. We do live in a relatively low crime rate area but when we are targeted by travelling criminals like this our crime figures go up but more importantly, the quality of life of local people is affected. People can help us by firstly not leaving valuables in cars and secondly reporting anything suspicious in the area to the police straight away."
