Car nicked last night from two roads away and a Porsche 911 had both headlights taken ! It’s getting like the Wild West in south London .
We had a council lamp post cctv put up to tackle crime a few years ago but they say it cost £5000 and they haven’t got many to move about, so you only get it for a few months.
Still a neighbour has put in a request for it to come back again.
Many residents have super cameras and can hear people talking yards away but it has only resulted in a few crashes recorded with positive results - but still only a small percentage of issue.
Some years back 50 houses and cars were hit by a BB gun drive by in the area.
Plod drafted in lots of officers etc but could not get all there nighttime camera footage and catch the Scroats !! Even we as residents could make out the make of vehicle from the light clusters.
Anyone had their Morgan stolen. Is this a thing ?
Off to the seaside of Dorset now to enjoy walking on Chesil Beach, the joys of Bridport and a meal out with some of my wife’s relatives in their late 80s and mid 90s ! Saves on the starters…….ho ho . Might drive through West Coker in the hope of trying to catch a glimpse of a members white (ivory) Morgan…
Best MM
