An increase in thefts from vehicles or vehicles broken into in our area (26/01/24)
Posted by Highfield Residents' Association on Jan 26, 2024 in Crime Incidents, News | 0 commentsWe have recently had thefts from vehicles or vehicles broken into in our area, and most recently several in Highfield Lane. This appears to be a problem across Southampton. We understand that the police are targeting affected areas and they have provided some useful crime prevention measures to protect vehicles & property which are definitely worth a read:
We continue to be advised by a local Police Community Support Officer (PCSO) that people must keep reporting crime and anti-social behavour incidents (ASB). Without these reports, she says the police will not know about them, and they do target areas if they are aware and are advised that there is a problem.
To report a crime or ASB incident:
If non urgent, telephone 101 or submit a report via the police website portal: https://www.hampshire.police.uk/ro/report
In an emegency or if you are actually witnessing a crime in progress, call 999.
