Hooking a Thief

Catch of the Day - West Yorkshire Police are called out to try to net a burglar who stole fishing tackle from a family in Leeds. The intruder escaped with gear worth thousands of pounds while the family were asleep upstairs. The raid has left them feeling so upset that they're considering moving home. But there's a major breakthrough when a crime reduction officer spots traces of blood next to the shattered window. Will the DNA evidence help the police to reel in the culprit? While the police investigate, Dan Donnelly helps to beef up the couple's security so they can feel safe in their own home again. Elsewhere in Leeds, Keeley Donavan helps a house full of students who discover a burglar has shinned up the drainpipe to break in through a bathroom window and steal their TV. New security measures include thick anti-climb paint on the drainpipes.
