POLICE are hoping to spoil Christmas for criminals with their ‘Bah Humbug’ campaign.
The initiative will see officers out and about in town centres giving out free jingle bell purse alarms to attach to bags.
Car park signs have been put up around the county to remind drivers to lock their vehicles.
Assistant chief constable Mark Bates said: “We want people to be able to enjoy the festivities, while being sensible to prevent themselves becoming victims of crime.”
