Numerous items believed to be stolen from theYork Avenue property were found and returned.

Police ask the public to make sure theyregisterand recordserial numbers of vehicles and trailers, including powersports and leisure products. Serial numbers of household products, such as electronics, power tools, bicycles andjewellery, should also be documented.

"At the very least you can actually record the serial numbers of these items even on a document that you've written yourself," Chancy said.

"So that way you have proof that you did own that piece of property and in the event that the property crimes unit does investigate that could be linked back to the rightful owner."
