February 2016 Monthly Newsletter Boothstown & Ellenbrook Your Local Neighbourhood Team PC Edwards PCSO Bentley PCSO Wilde Vehicle Crime It takes a few seconds to steal from a vehicle, many of these crimes are from unlocked vehicles. - ALWAYS LOCK IT! Never leave items on display, such as shopping bags, handbags, or coats. Don’t leave spare keys or sat navs in your vehicle, even in the glove box. At home, don’t leave car keys in clear view from windows or in reach from the letter box. Hook and canes can be used to steal keys through letter boxes. High value and performance cars can be specifically targeted for this type of crime. Never leave the engine running, especially in frosty weather, car thieves know that people do this. If you use your vehicle for work, remove your tools or other valuables if possible. Simple things like reversing onto the drive so that the rear doors on a van can’t be opened easily will help to put thieves off. Park where the vehicle can be well seen, even if it means walking a bit further. Don’t park behind bushes, walls or large vehicles because this gives criminals somewhere to hide. At night try to park in residential areas because people are more likely to be at home not at work. When using a car park, remove all items on display and think out when you will be returning to the car – will it be dark, if so is there a safer area to park nearer to a street light. Consider steering locks, alarms, tracking devices and immobilisers and if you have them, use them. Use anti-tamper or security screws on your registration plate – they can be easily fitted but can’t be removed using standard tools. Remember, vehicle crime is an occupation for some people, don’t make your vehicle an easy target for them. Leaving your home When you leave your home it’s important to ensure you leave it as secure as possible. Getting into an ‘exit routine’ can help ensure that you don’t forget obvious, but important things, like not leaving your valuables near windows. Here’s our quick reminder on what to do when you leave your home. What to do before you leave your home Close and lock all your doors and windows, even if you are only going out for a few minutes. Set your burglar alarm. Make sure the side and/or back gate is locked. Lock your shed or garage. Make sure that any valuables are not in sight. Put keys out of reach of letterboxes. In the evening, shut the curtains and leave some lights on. Never leave car documents or ID in obvious places such as kitchens or hallways. If you are going to be away for days or weeks at a time, you will need to take additional action, such as cancelling newspaper and milk deliveries. Consider asking your neighbours to close curtains, or park on your drive. Use a timer device to automatically turn lights and a radio on at night. GMPSalford West @GMPSalford. West
