In Your Area

 

I have to report that in the last week the following crime/crimes occurred in or near to your area.

 

 

Crime Reference WK/11/7302 – Between the hours of 10:50 and 11:05 on Friday the 28^th of October 2011 a robbery took place on the towpath along the Basingstoke Canal near to SHEETS HEATH LANE, BROOKWOOD.

 

During this time two males on bicycles rode pass the victim and grabbed her handbag. The first suspect was described as a white male, aged 17 to 20, 5ft 9 in height, skinny build, mousy brown hair, wearing a white hoody, dark trousers, black trainers and riding a mountain bike with a blue carrier bag on the handle bars. The second suspect is described as a white male, aged 20, 6ft in height, skinny build, dark hair, possibly blue eyes and a chinstrap beard, wearing a blue hoody, dark tracksuit bottoms, black trainers and riding a black and silver bicycle.

 

 

Crime Reference WK/11/7315 – Between the hours of 10:30 on Thursday the 27^th of October and 15:30 on Friday the 28^th of October 2011 a property in STAVELEY WAY, KNAPHILL was subject to a BURGLARY.

 

During this time it would appear that the offender/offenders gained access to the unoccupied property via the front door which was not locked. Once in they then managed to steal electrical items and cash.

 

 

Please ensure that all doors and windows are closed and locked. Don’t think that because you are only popping out for a moment or because you never deadlock your doors that it won’t happen to you!

Consider the installation of an intruder alarm in your home. Any alarm installed should conform to standard BS EN 50131 and should be fitted by a company that is NSI (National Security Inspectorate) or SSAIB (Security Systems and Alarms Inspection Board) approved. Details of such companies can be found at www.nsi.org.uk or www.ssaib.co.uk

 

If you feel that you have witnessed any incident that may relate to the above crime/crimes please call 101 quoting the relevant crime number.

 

Can you please circulate the details of the crimes to the members of your watch if you think it will be of value. Remember that if you have elderly or vulnerable residents in your road this information may frighten them so be careful how you deliver this message.

 

Yours Sincerely
