Local Priorities Burglary Message

Dear Resident

I wanted to provide you with an update regarding burglary, which people around your area have highlighted as an issue of concern on the priority survey.

On Weds 15th May an overnight burglary was reported as taking place on PINE WALK, SURBITON. The suspects forced a side door to gain access to the property, located keys and stole two vehicles (Black AUDI RS7 & White AUDI E-TRON) along with some cash and jewellery.

If you have any information relating to this incident, please call 101, quoting ref CAD 1295/14MAY

While we will continue to pursue burglars in the area, there are steps you can do to help keep your property safe. Make sure that you:  

• Double lock your door every time you leave the house  

• If you can, move garden furniture or bins away from windows so that thieves cannot use them to gain access.  

• Use laminated glass or security film on ground floor and accessible windows.  

• Use a sash stop if you have sash windows to prevent people opening them enough to climb through.  

• If your windows open outwards, use a key operated lock – check these are locked before leaving the house.  

• Make sure all valuables are out of sight. 

• Keep handbags and keys away from letterboxes or cat flaps.  

• In the evening shut the curtains and leave lights on.  

• Set your burglar alarm 

• Lock your  shed or garage 

• Mark, register or record your valuables.
