Man charged in connection to two burglaries in Roby

We can confirm that a man has been charged with burglary offences in connection to two incidents in Roby.

Steven Larkin, 47, of Seel Road, in Huyton, has been charged with burglary, attempted burglary and vehicle interference. He has been remanded and is next due to appear at Liverpool Crown Court on Monday 23 September.

It follows two reported burglaries on Roby Nook and Eaton Close, which both occurred on Sunday 11 August.

Detective Inspector Kevin O'Rourke said: “We know the profound impact that burglary can have on victims who have had the place they should feel safest invaded, and expensive and often much-needed property taken.

“It is always worth considering different ways you can make your homes unattractive targets for would-be criminals, such as keeping car keys out of sight.

“Advice is available on our website for locks, cameras and other measures to bring greater security and peace of mind.”
