RESIDENTS have been warned after CCTV footage showed a man trying car doors.

The footage showed the man trying the doors along Bowland Avenue in Burnley in the early hours of Saturday Morning.

Police say that they are aware of other car related crimes in the area and say that local officers are dealing with enquiries.

A spokesperson said: "Please lock all doors.

"Don’t leave your belongings on show, store them in the boot or take them with you.

"You may know your purse has nothing inside it but leaving it on the passenger seat is a huge temptation for some people, as they think it’s full of cash and cards.

"Let’s avoid the temptation."
