burgled last night..

Elthamaddick

On holiday at the moment and coming home tomorrow, phone call 1st thing this morning from neighbour to tell me I've been burgled...f**king wanna hope I don't catch up with them.

Doesn't sound 'too bad' from numerous conversations with neighbour / police etc today.....but still!!, house currently secure but a crime scene

Rant over

ShootersHillGuru

Really sorry to hear that. Hope they catch the scumbags. Good luck.

orrible f***ing burglars .. burglary should carry a mandatory 5 year jail sentence .. breaking into another's house and violating their property is TOTALLY out of order. Trouble is, jail only seems to be an option for the courts after a half dozen offences, and of course, old bill have got to catch the bastard who did the filthy deed

Sparrows Lane Lion

Wrong 'uns. Where in Eltham? Been a few near us recently.

Scum

I hate burglars, them peado's and rapists should be used as a replacement for the fox and let the gentry hunt them in the way they did poor mister fox

AddickUpNorth

One of the few times I'd support hardline Sharia Law. Dirty little scumbags need their hands chopping off!

tossers. We had our front door kicked in not so long ago. Police came round - no leads - but said there are a small handful of families who account for something like 80% of the crime near us. Just goes to show...

I get called to a few burglaries to change locks ect and its never nice.

Sorry to here that Eltham Addick.

To everyone..... If you have a UPVC door/Multipoint doors (the ones where you have to lift the handle up) always lock it with the at night or when you go out as just closing it and lifting the handle up is not good enough.

Chirpy Red

Rotten way to end a holiday. Sorry to hear.

Got a mate in the Old Bill and he said to me recently that Greenwich borough has, and is being hit substantially at the moment.

Glass half empty

3 of my immediate neighbours in East Greenwich - all elderly (over 80) were burgled or had attempted burglaries straight after xmas. One of them was so distraught she had to be taken to hospital. If they come to my door there's a 7" kitchen knife waiting for them!
Do the police actually take fingerprints, dna, etc in these cases? Or do they not bother & just issue a crime number for insurance, as they do with car break-ins?

My sister lived in Belvedere a few years ago. Was burgled. Police came out 3 days later! If it's not a crime in progress then they are not interested.

GRAY9

My Mum and Dad live in Lee near the World of Leather roundabout. They got burgled a couple of years back but scared the burglers off so didn't get away with much but my Mum signed up to these Neighbourhood watch e-mails afterwards and there's a burglary or attempted burglary virtually every week in the nearby roads.

Goonerhater

Sorry to hear it mate. We had ADT alarm fitted when they did our place to nic the new motor. Im sure it is in no way full proof , but it makes it a little harder for em.

Was in Queen Eliz hospital for a blood test yesterday (so was half the World) huge huge que and the guy on the counter says " there are lots of junkys its always busy" not totaly sure what they look like but have to say i didnt see many which looked "junky" to me, but drugs do feed crime waves.

davy macaddick

Not defending the OB but you have to take into account how understaffed they are. Yeah, it's not very satisfying when you're on the end of a crime (been there myself). We all want them to send the best csi unit along with a detective that rivals sherlock but unfortunately, the govt don't see policing as a priority for the like of us common folk.
Wrong but true................

Sorry to hear that EA, hope they catch the pr*cks

Sorry to hear you've been done. Happened to me many years ago and definitely the worst aspect is that some low-life has been in your house.

OB too busy catching motorists 3mph over the limit!
