POLICE were called with reports of people acting suspiciously in Dovercourt.
Officers were called to Main Road shortly before 10.55am on Friday, July 26, after people were seen in the gardens of empty properties, but ran off after being disturbed.
A resident, who asked not to be named, said was woken up by his housemate who heard noises and saw two men at about 1.30am on Friday.
He said: “I went outside with a torch, but they used a different way to get out to the way they gained access.”
He said he couldn’t find anyone in the gardens and later called the police.
If you have any information, call Essex Police on 101.
