Alderney Police investigate car thefts
Police are investigating after two cars were stolen in Alderney on Friday.
A blue Peugeot 206 was taken from Victoria Street and a black Citroen Picasso from the area of White Gates, police said.
The force said one of the vehicles was owned by an on-call member of the ambulance service, and as a result, officers said the incident "potentially put islanders' lives at risk".
They want to hear from anyone who saw either of the cars being driven between 20:00 BST on Friday and 04:00 on Saturday.
During the same timeframe there was also a collision at the harbour, which caused "significant damage" to a black 4x4.
Property owners are being asked to check for damage to fences and hedges, as the Citroen Picasso, taken from the White Gates area on Friday, had damage to its wing mirror from the incident.
