Christmas burglars arrest theory

-

The burglars behind a spate of break-ins around Alvechurch over Christmas may have been arrested elsewhere, police believe.

Safer Neighbourhood Team PC Simon Albutt told residents that there had been five burglaries in November and nine in November in the parish, but only two for almost the whole of January.

“Our thoughts are that those toerags have been apprehended elsewhere,” PC Albutt told the new Community Safety Committee set up by Alvechurch Parish Council to replace PACT meetings.

The meetings heard that in the wake of the burglaries there were now as many as ten neighbourhood watch schemes either set up or being set up in Alvechurch.
