Nanango Police are urging residents to pay special attention to securing their motorbikes after a spate of thefts in the area.<\/p>\n

Officer-in-Charge Sergeant Jason Newton manned a Neighbourhood Watch stall at the Nanango markets on Saturday to distribute flyers to local residents to urge them to take measures to reduce crime.<\/p>\n

“Eight motorbikes have been stolen so far this year at Nanango,” Sgt Newton said.<\/p>\n

“All of these thefts could have been easily avoided. Some even had the keys in the ignition!”<\/p>\n

Only two of the vehicles have been recovered, including a quad bike located by police after a search at Maidenwell recently.<\/p>\n

“If people locked their garages and took a few simple precautions, it would make it a lot harder for thieves,” Sgt Newton said.<\/p>\n
