A Wimbledon teenager has been arrested on suspicion of conspiracy to commit burglary.
The 15-year-old was arrested on January 5 by officers from the West Barnes and Dundonald Safer Neighbourhoods Team and has since been charged with conspiracy to commit burglary and a further offence of conspiracy to steal motor vehicles.
A police spokesman said patrols in the alleyways behind houses had increased after reports of burglaries.
Residents who see anyone acting suspiciously in the alleys should call 999 quoting ‘there have been several burglaries in the area’ and describing what they see.
