Leicestershire Police have shared a video on Facebook showing criminals caught on camera roaming through a village street at night trying to break into parked cars.
The thieves were seen on CCTV going along a residential street in Harborough district.
Police are warning people to remember to lock their vehicles.
A male in a hooded top is seen in the greyed video, walking down the street trying to open the doors of parked cars.
He is accompanied by a car crawling behind him, lighting his way down the dark road.
At one property a security light is triggered but the opportunistic young man continues on at the same, slow pace, undaunted.
Market Harborough Police said in the Facebook post: “This is genuine footage from a rural village detailing the efforts offenders are taking to commit theft from vehicles.
“If you witness anything suspicious please ring us.
“We can see these guys are opportunistic in their approach so please consider vehicle security when you park up for the night.”
BBC Breakfast show presenter Naga Munchetty has been found to have breached editorial guidelines after criticising Donald Trump for telling black politicians to “go home”.
Munchetty was ruled by the corporation to have overstepped the mark when she put comments by the United States president in the context of racism following a single complaint from a member of the public.
The newscaster said during a discussion with co-host Dan Walker, “Every time I have been told, as a woman of colour, to go back to where I came from, that was embedded in racism”.
She further said “absolutely furious a man in that position thinks it’s OK to skirt the lines by using language like that”.
The decision to reprimand Munchetty was made by the BBC’s executive complaints unit, a committee that rules on contentious issues.
Jeremy Corbyn wrote on Twitter, “Naga Munchetty stated a fact. She shared experiences of racism she’s suffered. That can’t be at odds with any editorial guidelines”.
The BBC said the newscaster breached editorial guidelines because their journalists are not allowed to “give their opinions about the individual making the remarks or their motives for doing so”.
BBC management is facing internal clashes with its own journalists who are publicly calling out the corporation when they feel it is falling short on issues relating to diversity.
The European Union has set Britain demands to see a replacement for the Irish backstop but the alternative to the backstop will not be implemented until the end of December 2020.
The UK parliament has rejected the demands three times already because it cannot meet the set deadline. The British government believe that the implementation will be shaped by the future relationship with the EU which is still to be determined.
The plea for more time was made after President Macron of France and the Finland’s prime minister Antti Rinne issued an ultimatum in Paris on Wednesday, giving Boris Johnson until the end of September to table workable proposals.
The European Commission has confirmed that it has received documents from the UK and it will have technical discussions on some aspects of customs, manufactured goods, and sanitary and phytosanitary rules.
So far, British negotiators have been visiting the EU capital frequently for talks, but with little sign of actual progress. They hope that the EU will drop any demand for a backstop in the withdrawal agreement, and let the UK have a transition period without a backstop in place.

TDE Rapper Schoolboy Q has put his album release on the back burner after the death of Mac Miller. During a recent concert, he said that he needs more time to deal with the tragic loss of his buddy Mac Miller and doesn’t feel right putting out his album.
He told the crowd at the event “Y’all know I only drop albums every two years, right? but in the process of dropping every two years, I ended up making four albums. But listen, with my ni**a gone right now, I just don’t feel right putting out an album. As y’all can tell, I’m not my real self right now. I shouldn’t even be here right now. But like I said, my ni**a Mac would not want me to be in the house sad. He would clown me for some weird shit. I’m here today because it’s no way he would allow me to sit in the house and be a little bitch. I’m not gonna be a little bitch.”
He did not reveal a release date, but assured fans that an album is still coming. “I’ma go back, and I’ma figure out when I’ma put this fucking album out, because y’all are gonna get this album,” he said. “I promise that. I’m just not ready to walk into the radio station and the first thing they ask me is, ‘So Mac Miller…’ I’m not ready to deal with those questions. So, right now, I’m not ready to put nothing out.”
Schoolboy Q and Mac Miller collaborated on tracks including 2012’s “Gees” and 2014’s “Friends.” In August, TDE CEO Anthony Tiffith announced that Q’s new album was “90 to 95 percent done.”
Miller died from an apparent overdose at his home in Studio City, Calif. on Sept. 7. He was 26. The L.A. County Coroner is waiting for toxicology results to determine the official cause of death.
