Actions taken on your neighbourhood priorities and general updates
Update: 20/01/2010 15:05:37
New tactic to help keep residents safe from distraction burglars
A device to prompt vulnerable residents to be on their guard against bogus callers is being recommended by West Surrey Police following two distraction burglaries on Monday 18 January in which the offender posed as a police officer. The Memo Minder unit is an electronic device that can be fitted inside a house and is activated when the householder approaches it. The system records a message and this could be one to remind the occupant to “not let anyone in unless they have an appointment and to put the chain on before answering the door” in a bid to help stop door step intruders.
Temporary Superintendent Ian Chandler said: “Officers are always trying to find ways in which to prevent residents from falling foul of distraction burglars and this seems like a method which could be of a significant help to the elderly and frail in our neighbourhoods. The idea would be to get a family member or trusted friend to record a simple message which would alert the person to security advice and may stop them letting a stranger in.
“There were two offences in the Guildford area in which the bogus caller managed to gain entry into one home by producing a fake police officer identity card but was prevented from deceiving another pensioner who recognised it as not being a genuine card. A reminder of not to let anyone in unless they are known and expected might have stopped the victim in the first instance here falling prey to the distraction burglar.”
Surrey Police recommends that if a resident is in any doubt as to the identity of a caller and posing as a police officer that they do not open the door, they ask for the officer’s identity number and that they call 0845 125 2222 to verify that the person is genuine.
The first offence on Monday happened in the Stoke Road area sometime between 10 an 11pm when a man pretending to be investigating a burglary knocked on the front door several times before being allowed in. He went into the 81-year-old’s house and told the victim to show him where she kept her cash. Later as the pensioner went back downstairs he took the opportunity to grab the money and leave.
In the second incident the suspect used the same method of distraction between 10.00p-10.10pm in the Bellfields area but was foiled in his attempt. The would-be offender is described as a white man, in his late twenties and with shaved blonde hair. He was wearing a distinctive Russian style felt hat with ear flaps and a cream coloured Puffa style jacket.
Anyone with any information relating to either incident is asked to call Surrey Police on 0845 125 2222 quoting reference GD/10/547. Alternatively, Crimestoppers can be contacted anonymously and free of charge on 0800 555 111.
Residents can get further crime prevention advice from PC Stephen Cake the borough’s crime reduction officer on 0845 125 2222.
Parking near schools
We are still having problems with drivers dropping off and picking up the children from local schools. Please be mindful of where you stop or park your vehicle as some people seem to think that they can park or stop wherever they like, causing inconvience to local resisdents and other drivers. We will be out and about during the busy times to give words of advice to drivers and we'll be issuing tickets should we need to - so you have been warned!!
Criminal damage in Stoughton
We have had several incidences of criminal damage along Worplesdon Road in Stoughton with offenders firing ball bearings at houses, causing twindows to smash or shatter. If anyone has any information relating to these incidents, please call Surrey Police on 0845 125 2222.

Profile: I have been with Surrey Police now since 1999 and have worked in a variety of roles within the force. I originally began at Godalming Police station working on the area team before moving to Farnham Police station in 2002. Whilst there I worked on the Borough team, the street duties unit where I tutored brand new Police Officers who were straight out of training school and then I worked on the divisional pro-active unit. I then worked up at HQ in the control room managing and running the incidents up there. In June 2006 I took up the role as the Neighbourhood Specialist Officer for Shalford and Tillingbourne, where I was for over 2 years. In August 2008 I was then asked to take on the role of NSO for the Stoughton/Worplesdon/Pirbright and Normandy areas.
In my spare time I enjoy all sports, both watching and playing and was a keen footballer (before age and injury took its toll) but still enjoy playing cricket, tennis and golf when able.
