Update
Please accept best wishes from the Police Community Teams for 2012
and please spare a thought for crime prevention in your busy lives;
please be aware of a few ‘top tips’ to help keep you and your
property safe as follows;
Please observe the rules and do not drink and drive, for all
involved it ruins lives;
have that can of de-icer and scraper handy so you can see out the
windows when it is frosty in the mornings, and leave more time for
the journey.
When shopping try not to leave items especially handbags or
wallets/purses on show in your supermarket trolley or car, keep
valuables with you. Lock other items away in the boot along with
that Satellite Navigation System that thieves like to steal by
smashing windows and breaking into your cars. Leave lights or a
radio on in the home to create a presence whilst you are out. Check
your house/gate locks are in order, and always check your smoke
alarm is working while you are about it.
Anti -social behaviour;
If you are experiencing any nuisance issues there is a designated
ASB hotline at the Council of 01206 282581.
Theft of Catalytic convertors from vehicles, particularly vans are
occurring across Colchester; where you can please secure your
vehicles in a garage and if you witness any strange behaviour
around vehicles report it to the Police, for example if people are
seen under a vehicle or tampering with the bonnet at night you may
find the strange and wish to report it.
Mercedes Sprinter Vans are being targeted by thieves for their
catalytic convertors. Whole exhaust systems are being stolen.
Owners please take as many security measures as you can. There are
products available that secure catalytic convertors and they can be
security marked.
The stealing of metal for scrap has also hit the headlines,
churches and old buildings are being targeted for the lead and
copper and precious metals and tiles, this also includes our
railway links, and remember, see it, hear it, report it at the time
it is happening.
Crime trend - with the ever increasing cost of fuel, fuel for
transport and heating is being stolen, security lights may help.
For crime reduction advice the Crime Reduction Officer can be
contacted at Colchester Police Station by dialling 101or 0300 333
4444 Please in an emergency still dial 999.
You can take action in a number of ways to help make your
neighbourhood a safer place to live, work and visit.
