We are investigating a series of theft from motor vehicle offences, in which disability blue badges have been stolen in Waltham Cross.
Since Wednesday 3 March, a total of 15 reports of vehicles having a window smashed and a blue badge stolen have been made.
The incidents have taken place on Park Lane, Hurst Drive, Raglan Avenue and the other side of Monarchs Way from Queens Road to Russells Ride.
PC Lucy Biddick, who is investigating, said: “I’m appealing for anyone who has information about these incidents or witnessed any of them take place, to please make contact with us.
“Any theft is upsetting for the victims, but this is particularly distressing for those involved, due to their vulnerabilities.
“If you do have a blue badge please be aware that blue badge locks are available to buy online and this may deter further thefts.
“If you are able to help I can be contacted directly via email at lucy.biddick@herts.pnn.police.uk”
