Detectives investigate dual commercial burglaries in North Belfast

Detectives in North Belfast have launched an investigation following two separate commercial burglaries in the area. In both incidents, which occurred in close proximity, suspects forced entry into business premises and made off with sums of cash.

The Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) confirmed that officers received reports of the break-ins, which are believed to have taken place overnight. Investigating officers are looking into potential links between the two incidents due to the similarity in the methods used to gain entry and the close timing of the offences.

Forensic teams have examined both scenes, and detectives are currently reviewing local CCTV footage. Business owners in North Belfast are urged to remain vigilant and review their security measures. Police have appealed to anyone who noticed any suspicious activity in the area at the time, or who has dashcam footage, to contact them immediately to assist with the ongoing investigation.
