Thieves continue to target Dunedin tradies' tools.
Power tools and other items were taken from a Toyota Hiace after a door was forced open in Wakari last night.
Senior Sergeant Craig Dinnissen, of Dunedin, said it appeared the suburb was being targeted by thieves after another report of a break-in where tools were taken on Sunday night.
There has been a spate of tool thefts recently, including $10,000 worth of tools being stolen from two properties in Mosgiel at the weekend.
Last week $2100 worth of tools were stolen from a truck parked in North East Valley, leading police to urge people to report any suspicious behaviour around building sites or near work vehicles.
