Burglary warning from local police

The South Glos area is currently suffering from a series of burglaries where the elderly are being targeted.

The method is generally to force a rear door or window and the offences are occurring between 7pm and 11pm in the evening, mostly on week days.

The police believe this is because they are not only identifying properties as having elderly occupiers but also because occupants are leaving the light on and the curtains open. They are encouraging residents to make sure all doors and windows are locked and all curtains drawn. If you see any suspicious activity, please call the Police on 999.
