Senior Constable Don Allan's monthly newsletter
Hi Neighbours,
Don comments the residential & vehicle crime incidents reported to police throughout May increased by 46 % compared to April.
Of note, some of our local residents have reported a suspicious male wearing a high vis vest, riding a lime scooter around our neighbourhoods scoping properties. If you see this activity occurring call police immediately on 111.

We are all pretty aware of the ongoing, constant problems there.
There's more positive info in the newletter in regard to this situation
There's an important community notice for a public meeting on 4th July focusing on safety where Don welcomes all to discuss what can be done to address these local concerns.
