Crime Reduction Advice

Across the Chester Outer area in the past few months there have been a number of burglaries and attempted burglaries. It appears that high value vehicles are being targeted, where the offender gains access to a house then looks to steal a handbag, they use keys within the handbag to steal the vehicle. Our advice would be to ensure that handbags are kept out of sight and keys are kept separately in a secure place, not in an obvious place that an offender may target (eg, key rack) In some instances the houses have not been secure, back doors left unlocked, windows left open, it is essential that residents make sure that their homes are secured at all times of day or night, I appreciate that with the hot weather people are keen to ventilate their homes, however offenders see this as an opportunity to gain access, make sure that there is someone in the room when a window or door is left insecure.

Arrests have been made in relation to some of these offences but I would encourage residents to remain vigilant.
A local PCSO has been out delivering advice leaflets to residents in relation to these offences and we are actively looking for offenders.

If there is any suspicious activity in the area I would encourage residents to contact the police on 0845 458 0000 (non - emergency) or 999 (emergency).
