SINN Féin Councillor Colly Kelly has warned residents in Creggan to be on the alert following a number of attempted break-ins in the Ballymagowan development.
Councillor Kelly said: “I am aware of at least three attempted break-ins in the Ballymagowan development over the past two weeks.
“Residents I have spoken to are worried that their home could be next to be targeted by these criminals.
“It’s important to keep doors locked as creeper burglars only need a few moments to get into a house and take whatever they can get their hands on.
“I would urge anyone who sees anything suspicious in the area to alert their neighbours and the police,” added Cllr Kelly.
