Good morning Resident

I wanted to inform you of a number of recent burglaries in the local area.

It appears that offenders have been targeting high performance and high value vehicles parked on residential driveways. We call this type of burglary a ‘car-key burglary’ as offenders will break into a home in order to search for keys to then steal the vehicle parked outside.

I have attached some links below that provide information and advice as to how to best safeguard yourself from becoming a victim of this type of offence:
