THE Swansea streets with the most robberies over the past few months have been revealed.
Figures for where and what types of crime, including robberies, have taken place in Swansea can be found on the police.uk website.
The warmer weather and lighter nights during the months of April, May and June, can see some of the largest number of robberies, which often involve violence or threats.
To prevent yourself falling victim to robbers, police advise you to stay on well-lit roads when walking in the dark, to avoid short cuts, to carry a bag across your chest, and to be careful with electronics.
We've had a look back at April, May and June 2016, to see which streets fell victim to robberies in spring and early summer this year.
There is no suggestion the robebrs will be back in these streets.
But it is a reminder to people living there, and every resident across the city, to be aware of their surroundings and how to prevent being robbed.
