Police rule out link to burglaries or dog thefts after markings found on house

Police have ruled out any link to burglaries or dog thefts after markings were reported on a house in Denbighshire.

Officers said they had been made aware of “suspicious white marks” being found on the brickwork of a property in Dyserth.

North Wales Police has said it has been informed that people believe the marks have been left due to dogs being present at the address.

However, the police force has not seen any links to burglaries and properties being marked, with no reports of dogs being stolen in the area either.

Members of the Prestatyn policing team added: “In relation to the two males cold calling we have no evidence these males are involved in anything.

“Please can residents remain vigilant and continue to report any suspicious incidents via 101 or 999 if a crime is in progress.

“Please also take this as an opportunity to re-visit security on your own homes, sheds and garages.”
