BURGLARY None this week, which is really good, We will be out and about doing burglary patrols to try and keep it that way.Theft of lead flashing seems to be on the rise again, there was one incident this week at Hinchcliffe mills were lead was stolen. There are a number of ways you can prevent/make it harder for thieves to steal/sell the lead and that is by using a special paint which makes the smelting of the lead more difficult and unattractive to scrap yards who take the lead in. This can be bought at any good local DIY business.
