Overnight break-ins spark Essex police warning
A series of break-ins across Essex has resulted in police officers sending a warning to drivers in the region, it has been reported.
The Essex Echo has stated that three Westcliff cars were targeted by criminals in the early hours of Tuesday April 15th.
One of the vehicles, a Ford Galaxy, was broken into and two maps were stolen from it, the news source added.

Indeed, it may be that a break-in can have a serious effect on car and bike insurance policies in the region.
Cover companies could consider it a risk to own a vehicle in the region and increase prices to suit.
Similarly, they may also believe that the vehicle owner involved is a risk to insure and negligent - increasing costs as a result.
This comes as new figures released by the Home Office reveal that there has been a fall in the number of recorded incidents of vehicle crime.
According to the government body, there was a four per cent fall in the problem between 2006 and 2007 compared to on year earlier.
