Crime:
5 April 2011
At
last as crime has been so low over the entire LPA - I can do a crime
message for the whole area !
A really good week so far:
I am often told ‘I don’t need to know what is happening
elsewhere, I only want to know what is happening in my road’. If our
opportunist thieves restricted their activities to one small area, that
could be true. Unfortunately – they don’t. They don’t recognise
parish, nor district boundaries, but offend wherever an opportunity
appears. Sometimes, it is useful to see what is going on elsewhere – it
could be your street tomorrow. As the crime is opportunistic, as soon as
one area suffers and toughens up, opportunities dry up – the thieves
simply move on to pastures new. Someone somewhere is not being sensible /
making a mistake – not locking their car – not locking up their house
at night. How many times do you read in my Ringmaster messages – house /
car left INSECURE, house / car entered BY
UNKNOWN MEANS, Letterbox entry. As long
as thos e opportunities exist and the thieves do not even have to break
in, but can simply open a car / patio / rear / door handle – crime will
persist and the same offenders, will move from area to area. Maidenhead
today – Windsor tomorrow – it means nothing to them. They will have
stolen the petrol in a ‘Bilking’ anyway, from a local garage.
