BOGUS CALLERS - SUMMERTREES ROAD

Hi folks,

We had a report yesterday from a resident on Summertrees Road  of a 12/13 year old boy described as blonde wearing a hi - vis jacket knocking at people's doors offering gardening services as well as asking a resident if their van was for sale.

He also mentioned his dad being on the street also but have no further details at this time.

Don't be tempted, they are very unlikely to provide a satisfactory service or guarantee of their work.

If you choose to speak to them do it preferably behind a door/window  and ensure any other doors/windows are locked to prevent  a possible distraction burglary.

Ideally ignore them and let police know about the visit on 101 or 999 if you feel threatened  or they refuse to leave.

Regards

PCSO Matt Fullagar
