Theft From Motorbike - 1st September 2009

A resident of Lower Adelaide Street and Neighbourhood Watch member reported to us that his motorbike was targeted by thieves.

On the 1st September 2009 between the hours of 10.30pm and 4.30am on the 2nd September thieves targeted his motorbike which was parked on Lower Adelaide Street, actually unscrewing the wing mirrors before stealing the mirrors (and the screws). They were believed to have been there between 30 and 45 minutes.

If you have any information in regard to this crime, please contact Northamptonshire Police on 03000-111222 quoting crime reference WB/17037/09.

Though it does not relate to this crime, could we remind all residents to take all valuable property (or anything which a thief might think is valuable) from their vehicle to prevent their vehicle being targeted by thieves.

Drugs In Our Community

As you know, drugs are NEVER something we should turn our backs on. Drugs can be addictive, even cannabis and many people commit crime in order to get the cash to pay for drugs. There is also the side issue of dirty needles being left lying around the Semilong Community, as what happened recently when some were found outside Castle School.

For that reason, if you know anything about drugs in our community, please let the police know, let us know, or tell Crimestoppers.

This is an issue which must be tackled.
