Thieves are using radio jammers to steal from cars parked at motorway service stations, police have warned.

Thames Valley Police said the transmitters could be used to "interrupt" signals from remote keys, preventing vehicles from being locked properly.

The force said 14 recent thefts from lorries, vans and cars with "no obvious sign of a break-in" had been reported.

It advised motorists to check vehicles before leaving them unattended.
