Police are asking parents to talk to their children after a spate of stolen scooters and bikes.
The police early action team says they're dealing with a recent increase in the number of such reports.
Officers took to Facebook saying children are leaving bicycles and scooters lying in the street or left unattended, which they say maybe too tempting for thieves to resist.
They're also asking parents to tell their kids that taking things that don't belong to them can land them in trouble.
