Dorchester police warning after reports of distraction thefts
By Joseph Macey 25th Oct 2022
Thefts of wallets and purses in the local area have sparked a warning from Dorchester Neighbourhood Policing Team.
The police say that offenders stand close and distract by placing a magazine or other flat object over the top of the bag or pocket, then remove items.
A spokesperson for Dorchester Police added: "Please be aware of your surroundings, keep items in zipped/ sealed bags or use inside pockets when able.
"Should you witness any of the behaviour please report at the time via 101 or alternatively [email protected]."
