In recent days there have been reports of a suspicious male described as between 30 and 40 years of age, with short fair hair, of stocky build, about 5' 9'' or 10'' tall, wearing a white T-shirt and blue jeans and white trainers, possibly with a small brown and white dog.

This male has reportedly been visiting people at their homes, claiming to be from various companies and that he needs to inspect equipment within the home. 

Police believe the male is a bogus caller and would ask that any cold callers have their identification thoroughly checked before entry is given to your home. If in doubt, do not let them in.

Please report any suspicious incidents to Police on 0845 60 60 24 7.
