Three burglaries in Lowestoft which took place overnight are being linked by detectives.

A dental practice on Kirkley Cliff Road was broken into at some point overnight from Monday into today.

The main office was entered but not items were taken.

A second incident took place over the same time frame when a storage shed at the model boat club at Kensington Gardens on Kensington Road was broken into after a wooden door was forced. It is not clear if anything was stolen.

A third incident took place at the WDC bowls and tennis club at Kensington Gardens where the main door to the storage shed was jemmied and an untidy search took place. No items appear to have been stolen in the incident.
