Sunday 26th April 2026
By Bridlington Gold Radio Editor
Humberside Police are investigating a burglary at a flat on Lansdowne Road, Bridlington, after offender or offenders gained entry through an insecure door.
The incident happened between 5.41pm and 5.58pm on 22nd April 2026, when the property was approached and entered during the early evening.
Officers are appealing for anyone with CCTV or video doorbell footage, or anyone who saw suspicious activity in the area around the time of the break‑in, to get in touch. Information can be reported via the non‑emergency number 101, quoting occurrence reference 2654299*.
Details can also be passed anonymously to Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111, or through the Crimestoppers website. Callers do not need to give their name and may be eligible for a reward.
Police have issued a reminder to keep homes secure and follow the WIDEN principles:
Windows: Keep them closed and locked
Interior: Use timers or smart bulbs for lights
Doors: Double‑lock or deadlock doors
Exterior: Use sensor‑activated lighting
Neighbours: Look out for one another
Residents are also encouraged to mark high‑value items using forensic marking or UV pens, and to register belongings on www.immobilise.com, a free national property database used by police to help reunite stolen goods with their owners.
Anyone with a burglar alarm is advised to ensure it is set and working correctly.
Police say their Crime Prevention Handbook offers further advice on protecting homes and property.
