Two bits of news locally.
First, I heard last night about some recent attempts at breaking in to homes on Rockfield Road and Rockfield Close in Oxted. I believe Police think that there is gang attempting to steal cars by taking car keys from hallway tables and the like. Having a burgular alarm may not deter them, so keep keys out of sight and easy reach.
Second there was a raid on a Cash-In-Transit deliver to Tesco in Caterham, yesterday morning. Police said they believe the same men carried out a robbery outside NatWest at The Green, Warlingham, on Tuesday. Apparently two guards were injured and a large amount of money was stolen.
If, as I think it is highly likely, that either or both of these gangs were from outside of the area this just illustrates why Surrey Police needs to be treated differently from a rural Force when it comes to funding.
