Police have
warned that break-ins are currently occurring in and around our area.
While only
one is known to have occurred within our own NHW area (in Knutsford Street),
there have apparently been at least a dozen break-ins over the last couple of
weeks in the area across Hamilton Road and behind the schools.
While we are
fortunate that our own little area is generally fairly safe, there is of course
nothing to stop those responsible for the break-ins behind the schools crossing
Hamilton Road to target our area.
So it
highlights the importance of keeping our homes secure at all times, even when
we are home.
Lock up doors and windows, even if just out in the garden (don’t
forget to take the key with you!). Secure wheelie bins so they can’t be used to
access higher-set windows or patios.
These
criminals seem to be targeting the easy entries and leave the more secure sites
alone, so keep security at a maximum and the crims will be more likely to move
on to an easier target.
If you see
anyone acting suspicious, you can contact Policelink on 131 444.
If a crime is
in progress, call 000.
