Community Constable Don Allan's newsletter
Hey Neighbours,
Here's Don's March newsletter... There's a lot of valuable information for you and he comments on the crime stats for February along with the steps to put in place to reduce being burgled again after a burglary as the burglars are now familiar with your layout of what security you have in place. They also know you are likely to replace the previously stolen items !! See page 17 of this newsletter to assist you.
Don gives us this information to inform & help us with our community safety. The local crime prevention Policing team place "prevention" at the forefront of what they do.. Eastern area Road Policing & Community officers have conducted a number of operation in our suburb.... focusing on distracted drivers and seat belt restraints. A person on their phone recently crashed into the rear of Don's personal motor vehicle causing extensive damage !!
