OXENFORD CRIME REPORT - JANUARY 2011

On behalf of A. Sr. Sgt. Andrew Lake, please find below a detailed crime report for our area for January 2011. As you can see the Regatta Waters area continues to be hit quite hard. In order to address this we have contacted the press and you may have seen an article on this topic in this week's edition of The Sun newspaper.

Coomera District's Crime Prevention Unit have  set up a stand outside Oxenford Woolworths that will run today and tomorrow. The Volunteers in Policing manning this stall are doing an excellent job of informing passers by of the crime wave in Oxenford and are handing out information regarding property and vehicle security. This is a great initiative by Sgt Martin Webb, the Crime Prevention Coordinator at Coomera Police Station.

Crime Report for January 2011

A large number of offences were committed in the Oxenford area during January, many of which would be linked to the same offender.
