PROTECT YOUR CAT
The Weston Mercury reported a disturbing story a few weeks ago that a pet cat had been found decapitated. Last week one of my staff reported that his cat had been killed by having his head stove in with a breeze block, just 18 paces from his front door.
Our Security Officer is conducting his own investigations into this and has been in touch with the Police and the RSPCA. They have advised they cannot help. If you hear of anyone who has information which can help him, please email me and keep an eye on your cat.
Theft from Cars
In a three week period there have been 30 reported thefts from cars. Thieves are smashing windows and bending out door frames to get into vehicles. Small hatchback cars are being targeted to steal items like sat navs, I-pods, cash, laptops and audio equipment. The thieves are making a thorough search of the cars and have even stolen sub woofer speakers and amplifiers.
Police advise to not only lock up your cars but to clear them of any valuable items. Remember to wipe any sat-nav sucker marks from the windscreen as offenders may target the vehicle in the hope the device has been hidden in the glove box or boot.
Distraction Burglaries
The Police have reported the latest reason being used to enter your premises is a person claiming to be fitting a kitchen in a nearby home and needs to check the water pressure.
Rogue Traders
A bogus builder has targeted an elderly woman. They tricked her into paying £5,000 for repairs to the roof, which was never done.
