Police Update
At around 2am on the morning of Sunday 22 June 2008 three females were walking
home along Creeting Road passed the new balancing pond. As they did so a dark
blue Ford Mondeo car drove passed them in the same direction and the male
appeared to slow down and lean across to look at them. The male then turned
around in the mouth of Cormorant Drive, approached the females and asked
whether they would like a lift, which they politely declined. He then drove
away but again turned around the mouth of Harrier Way and returned pulling up
along side the females. He then asked if they were drunk. They hurried away at
this point and saw that the car lingered around a little longer and again
turned around before heading off in the direction of Stowupland.
The females can only say that the registration had a prefix of W and contained 8
or B and 0 or O and a J.
If you have any information concerning this incident then please let either
myself or Jon Eaves know by contacting us on the number below.
Many thanks,

Identification and Security Marking of Personal Property
During a recent meeting with our Safer Neighbourhood Team Officer PC Jon Eaves,
he highlighted a problem, i.e. The proof of ownership of stolen items recovered
from an offender or premises.
In some instances the lack of definitive proof can lead to the offender not
being able to be arrested or charged.
He has asked if through the web-site we could prompt residents to take time to
make a note of serial numbers or mark with an ultra violet pen, or both , items
which you would consider valuable or ‘ Nickable’. Examples being TV’s, Videos,
PC’s, Mobiles, Bicycles, Items in sheds etc etc. You may even
consider an inventory of certain possessions.
Security marking of valuables, has two main important benefits; firstly, in the
event that your marked property is stolen and later recovered by police, it can
be positively identified and returned to you.
Marked property also provides good evidence to link thief/burgler to the crime
and helps police to secure a conviction.
In addition, keeping an inventory of marked items makes any insurance claims
that you may need to make in the aftermath of a theft or burglary easier to
process and more professional in the eyes of the insurers
Ultra violet marking pens can be bought for about a £1 or less, this, plus the
time taken to record a serial number may be a small effort for the return of
something you value
Jon Eaves would like to thank all residents who are prepared to take their time
to do this
