I wanted to provide you with an update regarding Vehicle crime , which people around your area have highlighted as an issue of concern on the priority survey.

A number of residents in the Wheelton area made Chorley Police aware of a vehicle left on Blackburn Rd, Wheelton, with two different number plates. Police have attended and discovered, after a vin check, that the vehicle was stolen. The vehicle was seized and taken to our recovery depot where a forensic examination will be conducted to try and identify a suspect.
