A recent article in the Western Telegraph has revealed a sharp increase in robbery, burglary and shoplifting in Wales – with Dyfed-Powys among the areas seeing significant spikes.
🚨 What’s Happening in Wales?
- Robbery and burglary rates are on the rise, particularly targeting rural communities and small businesses.
- Shoplifting offences have increased significantly – impacting high streets in Pembrokeshire, Carmarthenshire and Ceredigion.
- The police have warned that organised crime groups are often behind these spikes, and many incidents go unreported or undetected.
