Dear Resident

You are receiving this because you live in the vicinity of a burglary that occurred on Blackshaw Drive, this occurred  Thursday 12th November 1730hrs ad 1750hrs and the method of attack was by snapping the cylinder lock allowing entry. 

3 x Suspects arrive in an Audi vehicle (limited information) and go around the back of the property to the garden and attack the rear upvc door lock. No access is gained. Suspect's then attack rear ground floor double glazed window smashing it but are disturbed and no entry is actually gained or stolen.

Firstly if you have CCTV or a doorbell camera please check it between 1700hrs and 1800hrs  to check if you had any activations. 

Secondly if you have a door with a cylinder lock (composite or UPVC doors mainly) please check the lock. 

As a precaution, please check that your door locks are secure and correctly fitted. We recommend anti-snap locks with a 3 Star rating, certified to either TS007 or SS312 standards. These locks are available from many locksmiths and security providers.

Whilst we do not wish to alarm residents, it is always worthwhile reviewing your home security and reporting anything that seems suspicious. If you have any information regarding this or any other burglary, please contact us on 101.
