Burglaries

Residents of Aston and Newtown, we are currently experiencing a spike in Burglaries within these areas. We are therefore advising you to take precautions: do not leave valuables on display, property mark goods of high value, do not leave doors and windows open or insecure, do not leave tools or ladders in your gardens which could assist burglars and if you have a house alarm please ensure it is maintained and in good working order and that you use it when going out.  

Please check on elderly and vulnerable neighbours.  

If you are interested in setting up a Neighbourhood Watch then please contact West Midlands Police.  If you see anyone acting suspiciously please report it via 101 or in an emergency contact 999, alternatively you can contact Crime Stoppers 0800 555 111
