Uncovering The Burglars Code

Heart's helping Devon and Cornwall police uncover what they believe could be a burglar's code..

Symbols have been spotted near homes which  police believe could be linked to crimes in the area.

There's no hard evidence yet and police say they  aren't  trying to scare people, but they do want to  build up a library of the symbols so  that they can be analysed.

DC Steve Fleetwood, who is based at Torquay police station,  wants anyone who spots a strange sign near their house to contact their police officer or neighbourhood police team.
