Calling on observant local residents to help beat the burglars by calling police immediately using 999, a police spokesmna said: 'If you spot anything unusual – such as someone hanging around an address or someone carrying unboxed electrical items – or if you suspect a crime may be in progress, whether this be criminal damage, a burglary or vehicle crime, please call straight away.
'Your call will allow officers to attend quickly and may prevent a crime from being committed or help police catch criminals in the act.'
• Anyone with any information about who broke in to the homes should telephone DC 1451 Drake at Lowestoft CID on 01986 835300.
