LETTER: Watch out – brazen burglars about

Due to the general inertia and torporific attitude in alerting the neighbourhood displayed by our local police, may I warn fellow residents of Whaplode St Catherine of a couple of prowlers, resulting in a theft from a garage on Sunday night/Monday morning. Their transport was believed to be a white Vauxhall Golf, or similar.

With such a brazen attitude by these individuals, occupiers of standalone/isolated properties need to be particularly vigil. I would extend this alert to the neighbouring village of Holbeach St Johns.
