"House estate burglars targeted. Crime-cracking detectives are stepping up the war on housing estate burglars by using the latest analytical research which helps predict where future break-ins will occur. Over the past three years house burglary in Stockton-on-Tees has fallen dramatically. Once the average number of homes being broken into was more than 300 a month - now it is 66. But Det Chief Inspector Darren Best said despite the significant reductions achieved they are determined to put more pressure on criminals and cut crime even further.
New research has shown that if clusters of burglaries occur on an estate the next homes to be targeted will be within a 200 metre radius."
