SIX sheds and garages were burgled in two Darlington streets late last week and during the weekend.

Three consecutive houses in Ayton drive, off Carmel Road South, were the scenes of attacks between the evening of Thursday and early morning on Friday.

A set of golf clubs were taken from one of the garages.

A trio of similar burglaries occurred in Littlebeck Drive, in the Haughton area of town.

The thefts happened between Thursday night and 5pm on Sunday.

Fishing rods were taken from one shed, a child's bike from another, and a garage was broken into, although nothing was stolen.
