The Performance & Analysis Department have provided the following information.
We downloaded all motor-vehicle thefts for the required time parameters, filtered the results for vans and for multiple vehicles within one occurrence.
In cases where a van has been linked to an occurrence, it has only been included in the totals if it was subject to a break in or theft.
With regards to the breakdown of most targeted makes and models, whilst providing a complete breakdown of models, we have also grouped those with similar models of the same make together.
Please could you send me the following data available in your area on the following points, with figures to be broken down by month and to cover the period January 2023 to December 2023.
Please could you provide statistics for the number of vans reported broken in to and/or stolen (or had items stolen)
