Putney Crime Briefing - 2 June, 2004

Below are details of the street crimes and burglaries reported to Putney police between 27th May
and 2 June, 2004

The summer weather has brought out some thieves out, as well as the flowers. We have had one or two cases already of houses being entered through doors left open whilst the occupiers are in the garden. Please take care not to leave an open invitation for them; in particular do not leave the keys in the lock.
