NOTE

Due to the rising levels of burglaries and other related theft occurring in commercial properties in the local area, Police are asking that Businesses ensure they proportionately increase their security, and that individuals implement all crime preventative measures in the work place, in order to discourage criminal opportunists.

Police in Allerdale Rural are planning to reduce crimes relating to burglary, lead thefts from buildings, agricultural fuel thefts and also scrap metal thefts. With increased numbers of vehicle checks in the whole area.

Homeowners should take precaution’s to ensure all buildings including out buildings are properly secured with good qaulity padlocks and that any suspicious activity is reported promptly to the police. Often offenders will use a van. All details of any vehicles/persons involved should be reported as soon as is practical on 101. For more crime prevention advice please contact PCSO 5137 peter Moon or PCSO 5298 Megan Jones.

Vehicles should also at all times be left secured and no items of value left on display at any time.

Wildlife Crime

Police are also seeking assistance from local residents especially those who live in the outlying areas of Keswick to please report incidents of wildlife crime; including incidents involving illegal poaching and badger bating.
