I wanted to provide you with an update regarding burglary, which people around your area have highlighted as an issue of concern on the priority survey. Dear Ward members,
Good evening. For your information, there was a distracted residential burglary from a house that happened on HUNTERS ROAD, CHESSINGTON in between 17:00 hours – 18:00 hours on SUNDAY 18/01/2026. Unfortunately, the victim has had their £30 stolen due to that incident. Losing personal items can be distressing. We appeal to the public for any CCTV / RING DOORBELL CAMERA. We would be interested if they have captured anything suspicious or if you see anything unusual in your street, even small things like someone checking car doors, cycling slowly between driveways or hanging around late at night, if so, then please report it to the police. The more information we receive from you, the better we can target patrols and spot patterns across that area and surrounding areas.
Please do not allow any stranger to enter inside your house and please do not trust any stranger and give them your mobile phone and money. Instead, you can tell them that we are calling the POLICE so that the person who knocked door can get some assistance. If they are genuine then they will wait for the POLICE but if they are dodgy then they will run away. The suspect’s description is as follows: White male, medium build, 5ft 10 inch tall, clean shaven. He has short light brown hair, blue eyes, 35 years old approximately and he was wearing a full sleeve blue shirt with red stripes, blue jeans.

 While we will continue to pursue burglars in the area, there are steps you can do to help keep your property safe. Make sure that you: Double lock your door every time you leave the house If you can, move garden furniture or bins away from windows so that thieves cannot use them to gain access. Use laminated glass or security film on ground floor and accessible windows. Use a sash stop if you have sash windows to prevent people opening them enough to climb through. If your windows open outwards, use a key operated lock – check these are locked before leaving the house. Make sure all valuables are out of sight. Keep handbags and keys away from letterboxes or cat flaps. In the evening shut the curtains and leave lights on. Set your burglar alarm Lock your shed or garage Mark, register or record your valuables.
