Crime report from our DWPCSO Adam Charles
Dear Residents
Please see below the crime record for the first part of October, 2018
Unfortunately the crime rate has been higher than usual over this period even though the crime rate still remains low compared to many other areas.
Stay vigilant contact us by the appropriate means re crime and suspicious behaviour.
Take note of items that have been stolen from vehicles and think about what you usually leave in your vehicle and whether it would be worth bringing certain items indoors.
There also seems to have been more evening burglary than there has been during previous stints. If you are out late on a regular basis it may be worth considering investing in timer switches now that it is getting dark much earlier.
I understand that this report is not the best news but Shortlands remains a safe place to live, visit and work. We’ve had periods like this before and the crime levels have dropped again.
As a Safer Neighbourhood Team (SNT) we monitor all crime and intelligence reports and calls made by members of the public on the ward looking for patterns and taking the appropriate action.
Much of this is down to yourselves and other members of the public keeping us informed.
With the SNT phone, online reporting and 101 you have a good range of options in non emergency situations. If you would rather talk to someone in person the front office at Bromley Police Station is open 24/7 365 days a year.
Thanks for all your help and support as always. Take care.
Kind Regards
Adam
