Crime Prevention for Outbuildings, Garages & Sheds
With several crimes reported since the start of the year in and around Bristol, the Police have been offering crime prevention advice to reduce break ins, theft of power tools and garden machinery.
If you live in Clifton, Temple Meads, Leigh Woods, Stoke Bishop or near Bristol City Centre you can play your part by reporting any suspicious vehicles or persons. Descriptions and registrations of vehicles are key in reporting any unusual activity happening in your area of Bristol.
During autumn and winter, the local police expect to deal with more thefts from outbuildings, gardens, garage and shed break-ins, due to the darker evenings.
