Car crime update from our Thames Valley Police CPSO

Over the past few days we have received reports of thefts from vehicles specifically in the villages of Haddenham and Stone.  CCTV footage from residents has shown persons walking around just trying vehicle doors.  No damage has been reported to any vehicles at this time.   We would like to advise residents to ensure that their vehicles are secure and that no items of value are left within…..

Crime prevention advice:

  • When leaving your car, close all windows and lock your car
  • Park your car in an attended car park
  • When parking at home, use your garage. If you don't have a garage, park in a well-lit area
  • Don't leave anything on display in your vehicle
  • Take all your personal possessions with you
  • Remove sat nav holders and visible sat nav ring marks from windscreens
  • Leave the glove box open to show there's nothing inside
  • Fit an alarm or immobiliser to your car
  • Record the details of your property on the Immobilise website https://www.immobilise.com/
  • Do not store your car's documents in the car
  • Secure your wheels using locking wheel nuts
