AN organised crime group (OCG) who burgled 18 homes in Cheshire have been jailed. The seven men and three women were involved in 162 burglaries in total across Cheshire, Merseyside and Lancashire between January 2019 and February 2020. In January 2020, an investigation was launched by Merseyside Police, detectives from Cheshire Constabulary’s proactive team in Warrington and Lancashire Police following a spike in high value cars with an estimated value of £2.6m being stolen and often recovered in Blackburn. After evidence was gathered, warrants were executed in October 2020 across Merseyside and Lancashire which led to seven arrests being made and subsequent charges. The remaining three were later charged and the vast majority, faced with overwhelming evidence, pleaded guilty prior to trial.
