As the temperature gets hotter
and Christmas approaches, the risk of ‘easy pickings’ by offenders will
increase, both in homes and cars. Whether you are at home or not, only leave
windows and doors with security screens open. Sneak thefts always increase over
summer as people try to catch whatever cool breeze is available, and the
criminals will use open doors as invitations.
If you see potential criminal
activity, please contact police or Crimestoppers
and pass the information on. A local resident saw two cars acting suspiciously
at Movieworld last and obtained photos and contacted me. Both cars were stolen and involved in several
burglaries between Brisbane and the Gold Coast. The information we developed
has helped to link offences together for investigators.
