Dear Resident, I wanted to provide you with an update regarding House burglary, which people around your area have highlighted as an issue of concern on the priority survey. Dear Resident,
On Friday 9th of May we received reports of attempt burglaries in Elmtree. It is has been reported a male has tried the front door of properties.
If you or your neighbours have any information relating to this crime, or if you have captured any relevant footage on your CCTV or doorbell camera, please contact the police non-emergency number 101. Alternatively, you can give information anonymously via Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
Please be vigilant and do report any suspicious activity or behaviour in the area.
Tips to prevent burglary:
Check downstairs windows and doors are securely locked before you leave or go to bed.
Secure UPVC doors by lifting the handle and locking it to engage the security features.
Don’t leave keys, phones or other valuables on windowsills or in any other visible place.
Securely lock rear gates, sheds and garages.
Keep tools and ladders locked away, as they could be used to break into your home.
Use laminate glass where possible for any rear doors or windows. If this is not practicable, consider the use of security film over existing windows.
Use a “Fake TV” or timer switches on lamps to give the impression someone is at home.
Consider using a doorbell camera, interior camera, or a monitored burglar alarm.
Consider adding trellis to any side or rear boundaries to add extra height up to a maximum of 2 metres.
For more detailed advice, please visit our Cleveland Police website and search for “crime prevention”.
Kind regards
PCSO 7900 Lowe
