Detectives are looking to speak to this man as they believe he holds vital information that could help their investigation.

No arrests have been made this time but enquiries into the linked series is ongoing.

Detective inspector Natalie McDonald said; “We understand the concern this will raise due to the number involved in a short space of time but we are doing all we can to find those responsible.

“Regular local patrols are in place to provide visible reassurance while we continue to investigate, and we are particularly keen to speak to the man pictured as we believe he has information that could assist us.

“We would also like to remind local residents of key advice on how to keep their property safe and how to report any incidents to us to help obtain forensic opportunities.

“We understand burglary is one of the most distressing crimes to be involved in as a victim and remain committed on supporting those in our attempts to bring justice.
