Good Morning,
We are back on duty and have just reviewed the crimes that have been reported overnight.
There have been no burglaries or vehicle crime reported. A robbery took place in Wheatsheaf Road at 21:00 hours, where a male approached a lady with a screwdriver telling her to had over her bag. The bag did not contain anything of value, and was returned to the victim. The suspect then stole her mobile phone and quickly made off.
We will continue to tackle robbery in your local area. While we are investigating and arresting those responsible, please consider following the below advice to keep yourself and your property safe:
Do not leave your phone, tablet or other digital goods unattended, out of sight or on a table. Be aware of your surroundings and only use your phone when it is safe to do so. Put your phone away when you have finished using it. Secure your phone by choosing a strong pin or password Set up a tracking app on your phone so you can see where it is from another device like a laptop. Use it as soon as possible, before thieves have a chance to disable it. Turn off message previews, so that thieves won’t see any messages about reset or login codes when your phone is locked. Keep a note of your IMEI number (to access, type *#06# on your phone keypad) Plan your route, especially if you are going somewhere you have not been before. Keep to busy, well-lit streets and walkways. Move with purpose and appear confident.
We hope the information above is useful and addresses to some degree the concerns that you have raised. If you have experienced this issue or have information regarding an incident, please report it using our online reporting tools at https://www.met.police.uk/, speak to an operator in our Force Communications Room via our online web chat or call the non-emergency number 101.
Kind Regards Sue | ||
