Over the last seven days there has been a total of two reported residential burglaries on the following roads, COLEBOURNE ROAD and GREENALEIGH ROAD. Entry was gained via, drilling locks or snapping of locks. 

To ensure your property is safe, anti-snap locks, CCTV and alarms are useful methods to prevent offenders gaining entry or act as a deterrent.

Please ensure that your vehicles are locked and secured and, if your vehicle is keyless entry use a faraday pouch. Ensure nothing valuable is left on show within your vehicle, which could make it a target.
