At around 8pm an offender called at a home in Main Street, Brandon and told the resident to shut off the waster. He was asked for identification but said that he did not have any as his boss had it at another home. While the resident was in the kitchen turning off the water a second offender entered the house and stole a large quantity of cash.
At around 8.45pm an offender claiming to be from the Waterworks called at a home in Norton Leys, Rugby. He told the resident that he was waiting ofr dye to come through the water.
