A break-in in progress in this undated file image.

Lock your shed or lose its contents.

That's the message from the Collingwood and The Blue Mountains Ontario Provincial Police (OPP).

Police have responded to four shed break-ins between Tuesday and Wednesday in the Glen Rogers Road area of Collingwood.

An investigation is underway, and police are asking anyone with information to contact Collingwood OPP at 705-445-4321 or call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).

Police are suggesting locking vehicles, residences and garages, but to also put valuables in the house or garage. Police also remind homeowners good lighting around the home is a theft deterrent and motion-activated lighting in areas of your property could help as well.
