In the early hours of this morning two men were spotted in the Woodville Drive area trying car doors all the way down the street and on everyone's drives.
It was reported and the police attended quickly, although it is not known if they were caught.
The helicopter was used and the vehicle that the culprits arrived in was taken away by the police.
Stating the obvious but be extra vigilant, make sure your cars are locked and valuables are not on display.
