Do any of these items belong to you? Police believe they may have been stolen during a series of creeper burglaries in Pitsea.

Around 10 raids in a fortnight were recorded but none of the victims recognised these goods.

Officers investigating the spate now believe they could come from burglaries which the homeowners haven't even noticed yet.

Det Con Martin Wallington of Pitsea police explained: "I assume there are people out there who were burgled but presume they have just misplaced these possessions."

The items recovered include a Texas electronic personal organiser, a silver Parker pen, a calculator, lighters, bunches of keys with car keys and Chubb keys on, a leather tobacco pouch, and a disposable Kodak camera.

Det Con Wallington added: "We believe these are from the Pitsea burglaries because other property found with these items were reunited with the victims."
