“This is not the first house in the vicinity to have been affected by oil theft and I am asking residents to be more vigilant and to report any suspicious activity or any knowledge of those involved to PSNI, no matter how insignificant it may appear.

“Crimes like these are definitely on the rise and those involved are intent in causing hardship and distress to their victims and must be stopped,” added Colr. Dobbins.
