Postmen have been warned to be on their guard following a series of Christmas mail thefts in Worthing.
So far this month, thieves have stolen Royal Mail bicycles and sacks from Dominion Road, East Worthing and Ilex Way, Goring.
Letters were also snatched from a bag outside Dillons newsagents in Littlehampton Road.
A Royal Mail spokesman said: "There have been a number of postbag thefts in the area in the past week. The police have been informed.
"We have warned staff to be vigilant in the meantime and are reviewing our security.
"We would urge anyone with information on the thefts to contact police."
