Distraction burglary advice
After a report of a distraction burglary of an elderly couple's home this week, we are reminding residents to check ID of workman and not to let unannounced visitors into their homes.
People should also be wary of visitors who say they are from generic organisations like the water or gas board.
These organisations no longer exist.
Genuine visitors will not mind if their credentials are checked.
Residents with elderly relative, friends or neighbours are asked to remind them of the dangers of distraction burglars.
Stay safe.
