Police have warned residents to take care after a string of break-ins across the Highlands.

Boronia Street in Bowral and Holly Road and Sunninghill Avenue in Burradoo were the target of several break-ins over the Easter long weekend.

After a similar set of break-ins over the Christmas period, police have urged Highlanders to be vigilant with their home security.

Bowral Police Inspector John Klepczarek said residents should keep an eye out for suspicious activity.

“We’re not ruling out that these break-ins could be linked,” he said. “It’s a concern for police because these types of offences don’t occur in the region and to have so many in a few days is unusual.”

He encouraged the “good old-fashioned neighbourhood watch” approach and said if people were heading away over the Anzac Day holiday period, to ask a neighbour to keep an eye out.

“Ask someone close by to keep an eye on your property, look out for one another and if you see something suspicious, contact police,” Inspector Klepczarek said.

A 55-year-old man from Yerrinbool was flown to Liverpool Hospital after he was struck by a falling tree.

The man was cutting firewood at the back of a property on April 14 and loading it into his ute tray when a tree fell and pinned him to the tray.

People at the property helped to lift the tree off him and called emergency services about 6pm. He was flown to hospital with a reported head injury in a serious condition.

A man was treated for burns after his car caught fire as he was driving on April 14.

A 38-year-old Marrickville man was driving along Wombeyan Caves Road towards the campsite when smoke began to appear at the back of his car.

He stopped the car and tried to salvage what he could before the car caught fire.

Passing motorists took him to the Wombeyan Caves campsite where he was treated by rangers, and an ambulance took him to Goulburn Hospital for burns to his hand and lower leg.

Police inquiries continue into the incident.
