Community Constable Don Allan's July newsletter

Colleen from Onehunga

Don's newsletter is full of valuable information for us and we're very lucky he produces this. If you can pass it on, even to anyone out of the area, there's information contained therein of value to educate us in being aware of measures to enhance our own awareness of security measures we can put in place. See specifically page 13 -20
I keep seeing people commenting on persons around/in their properties when they have no reason to be there !!! There are numerous posts about items stolen from cars etc. Don's constantly suggests we don't leave anything in our cars - e.g. golf clubs, laptop bags, handbags, etc etc. I empty my car and open the centre console and the glove box so anyone looking can see - nothing to steal here. !!! ( see page 15)
These things need to be reported to the Police either as they're happening on 111 or after the fact if something has occured when you're not aware on 105. ( see page 20. )
Remember, if someone is on your property and you see them, please don't go out, or open the door , call 111 and a point of notice if it's happening, the Police can despatch the dog unit as long as it's available and no one has walked through the scent I believe.
Cameras seem to be essential now, a photo can of course be really helpful.
