The driver was delivering to a property on Overhill Road, on Friday but was unable to offer a description of the thief.

A Staffordshire Police alert to local residents said: "At approximately 5.50pm on December 2, a driver was making a delivery on Overhill Road, Burntwood, and left their keys in the vehicle unattended, unknown offenders have approached this vehicle and made off.

"There is no direction of travel and no description of the offenders who have stolen the car. If you have seen or heard anything regarding this incident please contact Staffordshire Police via 101 or online quoting serial 507 02/12/2022 to give your information or any evidence you have.

"Please do not leave your keys in the vehicles unattended, this leaves the vehicle vulnerable and makes it an easy target for theft. This also voids any insurance that you may have as most insurance companies won't accept liability if you have left the keys in the vehicle."
