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. Residents, A burglary occurred on 19th May between 8:30pm and 9:30pm at Langland Crescent, HA7 area. We understand that three suspects may have accessed the area via the rear of Portland Crescent. We are appealing to local residents for any information that may assist:
Did you see or hear anything suspicious around this time? Do you have any CCTV, Ring doorbell, or dashcam footage that may have captured the suspects or any unusual activity? Did you notice any unfamiliar persons or vehicles in the area, especially near Portland Crescent or rear access routes?
Even small details may be significant. If you have any information, please contact police on 101, quoting the date and location. Always call 999 in an emergency.
 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.
