POLICE have repeated their warnings to householders following another house raid that led to the theft of a car.

Raiders broke into a house in Ashlands Court, Northallerton, through an insecure front door some time on Saturday night or early Sunday morning.

They stole a set of car keys which they then used to take a green B-registered Vauxhall Vectra that was parked outside.

The car was later found abandoned in Middlesbrough and police are now appealing for anyone who may have seen anything to contact them on 0845 6060 247, as there have been several such raids in the area recently.
