Police arrested 33 people in an operation designed to drive down burglaries in the Bradford district.
Operation Shrilldale, which ran throughout January, was designed to target residential burglaries across the district as part of West Yorkshire Police’s ‘Darker Nights’ campaign.
The scheme also targeted raids of garages, sheds and outbuildings, which under new crime recording processes are now classed as residential burglaries.
The arrests resulted in 14 charges to date and officers are continuing enquiries.
