POLICE are warning people to keep their homes secure after a spate of house burglaries.
Several burglaries have occurred recently in Darwen, where offenders have got in after forcing open ground floor windows left open overnight.
Officers have called for people to 'remain vigilant'.
Blackburn and Darwen Police said on Facebook: "Whilst we appreciate the hot weather, we don't want you to fall victim to these criminals.
"Please remain vigilant and make sure to share this post to let as many residents know.
"We are doing everything that we can at each and every burglary in Blackburn and Darwen to identify the offenders and ultimately get them off your streets."
