Police believe a series of burglaries from one end of the Clutha District to the other are linked.

Senior Constable Murray Hewitson says three holiday homes at Toko Mouth, Nuggets Rd, and in Dewe Rd, were burgled and it appears the incidents are connected.

All three properties targeted were vacant holiday homes which are isolated from the public eye.

The method of breaking and entering into each of the homes was the same and similar items, including television sets and kitchen items, were removed.
