OPPORTUNIST THEFTS

You will have seen in recent Neighbourhood Watch newsletters that there have been a number of situations where items have been stolen from unlocked sheds and cars. There have been other situations where opportunist thieves have routinely tried doors house to house and having discovered a door unsecured have stolen people’s often valuable property.
