Crime:
25 January 2008
I
receive a daily bulletin from Police Headquarters regarding all the
distraction burglaries across Thames Valley. Though we have only had one
or two, they are continuing elsewhere. As police activity increases, they
could displace this to us again. Please advise all your elderly or
vulnerable residents, not to open the door to anyone, without using the
door chain. If someone wants to come in to talk about anything, or they
are asking to come in, tell them to say they are phoning a neighbour to be
with them and close the door for a few minutes. That should dissuade most
suspicious callers. If possible, find a few volunteers in your road,
likely to be there during the day, willing to help in this circumstance.
By making them safe - we make ourselves safe. CRIME: PINKNEYS

CRIME: There
is still a fair amount of car crime about, so can everyone be on their
guard and leave nothing on display. Phone through all suspicious incidents
to the police on the 0845 8 505 505 number.
