“Van drivers can be an easy target if thieves believe they can walk off with expensive tools so make sure you remove anything that is of value before leaving your vehicle for the day or overnight.
“We are also sharing this message on our social media pages so follow us on Facebook and make sure to share this crime prevention information with friends and family.”
