Residential Burglary Crime Prevention Advice There have been reports of residential burglaries since the New Year where the suspect(s) have gained access through a first floor window. Most of these reports involve properties located in the North of the Borough. Please consider the following advice: CCTV & video doorbells Video doorbells and CCTV that cover access routes can act as a deterrent and may provide valuable evidence if suspicious activity occurs. To get the most benefit, make sure your system allows recordings to be saved and accessed if required. Motion-sensor lighting adds another layer of protection and helps capture movement early.
