There are a number of secret signs used by criminal planning to break into properties, with various markings and shapes to look out for outside your home.
A warning has been issued over secret symbols used by thieves trying to break into houses across Scotland and the rest of the UK.
Signs used by criminals are often left in chalk, however, the markings on the tree outside the Sandwell family's home are thought to be used in a similar way, connected to the theft of an Audi, BMW and Mercedes during the early hours of August 9. And now one of the victims is urging others to be aware, looking out for potential warning signs.
These secret symbols have been a concern for some time, with police forces around the country previously sharing images of signs to look out for.
