Tip of the week:
It is to be noted that Crowbar activity has accelerated from Sept month, and this trend tends to continue and climb further over the festive season.
Remember all residents can play a role in keeping our community safe even though you are not a patroller.
When you perhaps go for a walk, or a bicycle ride around our area, or even a trip to the shop by car, be alert and report suspicious behavior.
Pay attention to clothing worn, although when a crime is committed, clothing can be removed to avoid being seen.
Pay special attention to shoes worn, as in most cases, shoes are kept on.
Whilst not too much can physically be done to prevent Crowbar modus robberies, tighten your home security and remember to request your service provider to cancel the front door delay of your alarm system. The use of a remote is then used to activate and deactivate your alarm.
Be safe!
