Update on our Priorities House Burglary- There has only been one house attacked over the last month. Late one evening ground floor windows were broken to gain access to the rear of a house in Seaforth Avenue. Nothing believed to have been taken. On looking at surrounding areas there have been several of these types of break in around the New Malden area but so far this is the only one reported to us on our area. The Marina Avenue gating project run by PCSO Glackin is gaining momentum with the council willing to fund 45% of the costs. However this comes with the proviso that all residents support the installation of the gate and we are still waiting for some replies. Raynes Park High School- The process of creating a youth panel was started by PCSO Clargo with the first meeting between pupils and the Safer Neighbourhood Teams last month. Their highest concerns were bullying and stop and search. Further meetings with the remaining years are planned for later on this term. Residents in Barnscroft and Westway Close were surveyed to establish what concerns they have and these will be fed back through the panel. Burlington Road- There was a slight increase in vehicle crime in the first half of May with the roads near the A3 having the most activity. We have suspended the environmental work in the area and are concentrating on patrols around these roads. A man has been arrested on suspicion of stealing number plates. He has not been charged but is on Police bail while further enquiries are made. Other News On Friday 14th May PC Worthy helped organise a joint operation with British Transport Police with everyone leaving Motspur Park train station having their fares checked. 62 Fare offences were detected with 20 full stop and account/searches being conducted. The crime which occurs on the ward is predominantly committed by people living outside the area and travelling in. PCSO Glackin arranged for the dog section to visit the Brownies and Girl Guides at Holy Cross. They were shown a demonstration of the type of work the dogs were involved.
