A Northern Ireland police station which was targeted by burglars had been left with its windows open and its alarm switched off, it has emerged.
The station in Ballynahinch, County Down, was broken into last month.
Assistant Chief Constable Duncan McCausland told the Policing Board officers went on patrol and forgot to lock up properly.
He said that a criminal and disciplinary investigation was under way.
ACC McCausland said the message for police was the same as every other householder - close your windows and switch on the alarm.
