As you will have seen if you read the milton-chat list we seem to be having a bit of a crime wave in Milton at the moment with reports of an unlocked car being ransacked on Humphries Way last weekend and house windows being broken on Fen Road (one last Tuesday night, two last night). There are also earlier reports of things being thrown at windows in Old School Lane and Coles Road.

So a reminder that if you are affected by any incident, however minor, then please do report it to the police. They won’t necessarily do anything about your incident but it all adds to the statistics and police priorities are (quite rightly) guided by those figures. Similarly if you see anything suspicious.

You can do this by phoning 0845 456 456 4 or the geographic equivalent 01480 456111 (which is often cheaper to ring).
