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. During the shift of TUESDAY 3rd MARCH, we conducted two stop & searches.
One being a vehicle stop and another being a person stop.
One of them resulted in a positive search with a Class B drug being found.
Your local officers are hard at work piecing together CCTV and reports of attempted burglary, burglary and theft from motor vehicles.

 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.
