Burglary in S8...

[Lofster 10]

some thieving toe-rag broke into our hose this afternoon in broad daylight by kicking in the front door... and no one saw a thing.. likely.

 

anyone been offered a ps3, xbox360 or 2 passports? or failing that who it was?

[van man 10]

where are you in s8?

[Nicoracle 10]

is this connected to the other thread you started hour ago re police on chippinghouse?

[scoop 10]

Apparently there have been alot of burglaries around S8, in fact the other night the rozzers stopped my husband on his way home as he was running, and apparently this makes you look suspicous.

[***Boss*** 10]

are they targetting any particular roads?

Very suspicious house boarded up on Meadowhead. The one that had all the cars and rubbish over the driveway (opp catholic church) Was it raided?

Where in S8? I live in Batemoor and was robbed in May. They stole XBOX 360, laptop, hairdryer (?), camera and my daughters 5p's from a chocolate tin.

I know who it was, a local teenage ar*ehole, but without evidence the police could do sod all. Broad daylight, too.

 

You want any more info let me know.

Re, checking for stolen property in pawnshops and whatnot.

 

I can't emphasize this simple bit of advice enough, but -and this only takes a few minutes at most- make sure you:

_ if you have one, stencil your items with an invisible ink pen incl. name - postcode - house number,

_ keep the bills if you bought items new, or printouts of eBay pages (or e.g. this Forum's pages/pms) when bought second-hand,

_ make a record of serial number of an item on its corresponding bill (and/or in a spreadsheet, but remember PCs get nicked),

_ take a photo of your items (easy these days with digital cameras!), preferably somewhere recognisable in your house (front of fire place or wherever) + print it,

_ put all this together in a folder, update the folder when you buy/sell stuff.

 

Sounds like a lot of effort ...but believe me, it's nothing compared to what effort you'll need to make in order to get anything out of your insurance or to get your item back from a pawnshop (if you don't).
