Dear All,
Good News! Police in Kent and Sussex recovered, at the Dartford Crossing, a significant amount of plant machinery including a CAT 8DL bulldozer and a Volvo excavator stolen from North East Hants. The crucial information which led to the recovery was serial and chassis numbers. Please consider recording these facts and retain in a safe place!
Friday, 7 May at South Warnborough – Suspicious Incident – bogus callers!
A local resident had a strange visit from a man claiming to need to see/read her electricity meter; the man was carrying a clipboard and flashed something that looked like an official card. The resident did not let the man in who advised that a reduction in the cost of electricity could be claimed if he gained access to read the meter, and he asked to see the electricity bill. The man went on to talk about the gas supply benefits – there is no gas in Froyle Lane! The resident asked the man if he knew her name but he did not. The man drove off quickly once he realised he could not gain access. A white/silver coloured saloon car P141 P--? There was a woman with him who was waiting by the houses opposite during the conversation by the door but left in the car with the man.
The resident was very suspicious as she had only recently been in touch with her electricity supplier and knew the man who usually read her meter. She telephoned them and was assured that nobody from the company had called on her, however, the company stated it might have been a representative from another electricity company.
Thursday, 6 May – Cliddesden, close to the pond
At around 11pm the bench located near to Cliddesden pond was damaged beyond repair. PC Reid is aware that a group of youths were in this area and drove away in a car without lights on. If you were in Cliddesden area that evening and if you saw or heard anything please report it to PC Reid.
Monday, 3 May at Winslade - Suspicious incident
At about 1.30pm a male, described as Turkish appearance, was on the A339 near the large lay-by at Winslade; the man was stopping traffic in the lay-by asking for money to purchase some petrol as his car had run out. When a member of the public offered to get him some petrol, the man said that he only wanted the money and handed him a load of gold! This is normally a scam for money.
Saturday, 17 / Sunday, 18 April at Curdridge – Stolen horse box
A SCANIA Horse Box, index 4813TR valued in excess of £80,000, was stolen during the weekend of 17/18 April – if you have any information please call the police.

Did you see anything suspicious or irregular? Then don’t hesitate to report it – fight crime!

Dear All,
PC Reid has asked that I bring the following to your attention:
Suspicious Vehicle: Red Volvo V40 Estate Reg. S699 JOB
Vehicle and occupants may be involved in rural crime, particularly, dwelling burglaries.
Burghclere Church, 08 March - theft of Copper
PC Reid is concerned for our local churches are once again being targeted; copper has been stolen twice from within the Burghclere Church. Please keep an eye on our churches or any other local vulnerable buildings.
Dog Owners: please do keep your dogs under proper control, preferably on a lead while walking amongst livestock but particularly during the lambing season. Sadly when dogs chase and injure or kill sheep they normally continue to do it! In 2009 there were 3 cases of dogs worrying sheep, one resulted in a lamb being killed and the others put down – needless to say the dogs were destroyed.
Theft from parked cars: Spring has sprung and more and more people are out walking. In anticipation of another busy walking season and, in particular, when our bluebells bloom; the police advise they have seen an increase in thefts from motorcars parked in isolated rural area’s whilst owners go walking. PC Reid asks drivers to be aware that if you leave your vehicle in a remote area please make sure handbags are not placed under seats, sat nav’s left in glove compartments and laptops and/or a brief cases etc left in the boot (PLACES THE THIEVES LOOK!). Also, please note that criminals have a device that can detect such equipment in your car boot!
Rogue Traders: Trading Standards wish to alert residents to the fact that rogue traders are cold calling within this area offering roof repairs. Be aware and don’t be taken in by these tricksters! Once they are on your property then the small repair you want done usually ends up with the tricksters finding ‘further problems’ which would then cost much more. If you have any information about these traders or require advice on doorstep crime then can contact Hampshire County Council's Quick Response Team on 01962 833666, where specially trained officers are on hand to provide assistance.
Theft of car keys: remove your car keys from downstairs or away from the hall area, ideally take them upstairs or secure away from the front or back door or windows of the house. With more effective car alarms these days please be aware that the main way to steal cars is by breaking into the house; 99% of night time burglaries (which in themselves are extremely rare), are in this mode. Last year on PC Reid’s beat we saw a reduction in dwelling burglaries with 7 in total being reported for the 78 sq mile beat area; this was 3 less than in 2008 and 9 less than in 2007.

Dear All,
PC Reid has asked that I bring the following to your attention.
Suspicious Vehicles :
Friday, 12 February - red car (type unknown) driver and passenger (2 white young men) wearing ‘beeney’ hats were seen in Upton Gregy at about 8pm attempting to steal straddle stones.
For information: PC Reid recently spoke with a 'dealer' in such things and the dealer advised that owners of such artifacts should consider drilling a hole in both the base of the top stone and in the top of the base stone, then place a metal rod in the hole so it joins the two together and then cements the parts together. This makes the stone one complete item and too heavy for two men to lift.
Friday, 12 February mid morning, West Meon – the driver of a white Mercedes Sprinter van, Reg. BV54 XSE was seen looking into nearby vehicles. On being spotted he quickly made off. The man is described as being white, about 6ft 2ins tall, with ginger hair and a beard and wearing a green jumper and jeans.
Friday, 12 February between 1.00 & 2.00pm - a white Ford Escort, Reg. N532 OTG van was stolen in Winchester.
Thursday, 11 February mid morning in Micheldever – a white van, registration given as LD51 KUB, was seen driving slowly round the area with occupants paying close attention to houses.
Monday, 08 February, silver Peugeot Reg. Y394 EBW – seen in Brown Candover, two white young men acting suspiciously. They were also seen near Andover on Saturday, 06 February in similar circumstances.
Saturday, 06 February, a white Land Rover with an orange light on top – called at an address in Kingsclere asking the occupant if they would like work done on the driveway. The resident declined the offer - no registration details taken but the vehicle had "motorway maintenance" written on the back.
Friday, 05 February, West Meon - 3 males in a tatty green Ford Transit, Reg. R524 VRA were seen driving slowly round the village. The van looked as if it had been hand-painted.
Sunday, 31 January between 3 and 4pm – a witness called Police to say that they had seen 3 males running from a farm area and one was armed with a crow bar. The witness stated that all the males were in their 20’s and of slim build. One of the males was white and he was wearing a black hooded jumper, had black curly hair and black side burns and was carrying a double ended crow bar. One of the other males was dressed in some kind of beige top and wearing Adidas tracksuit bottoms with a white stripe down the side.
Please do ensure that you secure your property; outside sheds and barns as well as the house. Did you see anything suspicious or irregular? Then don’t hesitate to report it – PC Reid would be pleased to hear from you and can be contact on: 01256 389050 & 07768:776844.

PC Reid and I would like to take this opportunity to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
Previously not reported in the NW report:
Ellisfield, Thursday, 10 September - garden bench stolen during the evening of the 10th. The bench is very rare as it's from Bali and has carvings of mythical creatures on the front legs.

Driver of the van was a swarthy man in his 60’s with a beard and accompanied by a blonde in her 50’s.

SAS Fire & Security Systems Ltd – is know to offer ‘free’ burglar alarms but only if you sign up to the additional monitoring facilities. The Company is working in North Hampshire.
Rogue Traders - are cold calling the Basingstoke and South Ham areas of Hampshire offering roof repair services. The traders are currently operating under the name of Wyevale Construction and are not providing consumers with the required notice of right to cancel, which gives consumers a 7 day cooling off period.

August/ September 2009
Dear All,
PC Reid is extremely pleased to advise that reported crime for his beat fell in June 2009 compared to June 2008, however, sadly it is the first month this year that reported crime has shown a reduction on the corresponding month in 2008. The increase in the first six months compared to last year may be due to the current economic climate or people reporting crime when in the past they may not have done so. However, PC Reid feels it is more likely the work of the opportunist thief taking advantage of residents who have failed to take simple steps to protect their property. Over the first six months of this year the highest recorded crime is that of non-dwelling burglary i.e. sheds and out buildings; 31 have been recorded this year to-date whilst 35 were record throughout the whole of 2008!
It is down to residents to do more to protect their property – consider fitting censor lighting (making sure the censor can not be moved by the criminal so as not to work), fit good locks and hasps which are secured to good wooden doors, and not rotten ones where the screws can be forced out by a screwdriver between the door and hasp. Please note; PC Reid is available to provide crime prevention advice. Please help the police to help you!

Dear All,
Unfortunately, PC Reid could not attend the Annual Parish meeting on 01 May. However, he is keen to re-vamp the way of communication in the NW schemes in his beat to reduce bureaucracy and in general keep it straight forward and simple. The Parish magazines are a very good way of communication but there is a delay in getting information out to the residents – it can take around 15 days before you receive the publication from the incident occurring! Therefore, a simple straight forward way of communicating by email – PC Reid, the NW co-ordination and you or PR Reid and you! If you don’t have email, then your co-ordinator would be happy to telephone you provide hard copy information when necessary – please just let them know.
In line with these changes, I would ask residents to please consider providing, where possible, their email address to your scheme co-ordinator or me, so that you can be included in the circulation of NW information.
