Dear Watch Member,
Earlier in the week a gas engineer had £600 worth of tools stolen from the rear of a property where he was undertaking work.
The suspect walked through the property’s open side gate to gain access to the tools, before leaving the location in a white transit van.
As a general crime prevention measure, it is important to ensure that all access points into your property, e.g. windows, doors etc, are secure whenever left unattended.
Building sites are an attraction to any opportunist thieves driving around the area looking to take advantage of unattended equipment, insecure work vehicles and open garages, so please have a conversation with anyone working at your property regarding what they should do to protect you and them from becoming a victim of crime.
