A 38-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of burglary.
The arrest comes after a series of shed and garage break ins and thefts from gardens over the last month. The suspect remains in police custody.
These have occurred in the Fitton Hill and Limeside areas of Oldham, with several linked as part of this investigation.
Detective Sergeant Parkin, from the Neighbourhood Crime Team in Oldham, said: “This is an excellent result for an offender who we believe is linked to several thefts in the Oldham area.
“Crimes such as these can cause misery to homeowners and we encourage residents in the Fitton Hill and Limeside areas to check their CCTV overnight or over recent days.
“Please check anything which covers gardens and access to them and report any findings online to us via www.gmp.police.uk or by calling 101 and quoting the reference number CRI/06QQ/0015386/25.”
