CRIME REPORT - APRIL 2017

Nine offences were reported to police in April, with a spate of burglaries over a three-day period being the biggest issue. Two of the offences could be considered attempts, although the offenders gained entry into the roof space of one house.
A caravan was also stolen, whilst being stored in a driveway. There must be a market for stolen caravans, so owners should review their security. Perhaps a solid wheel clamp and hitch lock should be considered to better protect them.
For full details of all the crimes committed in our area, come to our next meeting on Tuesday night (09/05/17) at the Oxenford Community and Youth Centre.
