Police message for Wanstead

The police have issued a message for local residents.

“The Wanstead area has seen a recent spike in overnight burglaries. In a lot of cases, entry to properties has been made through the front door, where occupants have either failed to lock the door at all, or in the case of UPVC-style doors, they have not been properly double-locked from within. Residents are urged to securely lock all doors and windows, including porches,” said a police spokesperson.
