Stretford Neighbourhood Police Team Advice – Burglaries in the Barton Road and surrounding area

I’ve received the following advice from the Stretford Neighbourhood Police Team in response to recent burglaries in the Barton Road area of Stretford.

Dear resident,

I am writing to inform you that your neighbourhood has recently been targeted by burglars.

We are working to tackle this by increasing Police patrols and targeting known criminals.

One in three burglaries happen when doors and windows are left open or unlocked. Help us to help you avoid becoming a victim of burglary by following a few simple steps.

·     Lock all external doors and windows whether you are at home or not

·     Leave a light on or use plug in timers to operate lights and radios

·     If you have an alarm use it everytime you go out or go to bed

We would urge you to report any suspicious activity, as by working together we stand a better chance of catching those responsible.

If you have a policing issue in your area or wish to speak to an officer please contact the Stretford Neighbourhood Policing Team on 0161 856 7655 or email Stretford.Area@gmp.police.uk

For non-emergency calls or to report a crime call 0161 872 5050 or for more information visit gmp.police.uk. Only call 999 in an emergency where there is a threat to life or crime in progress.

You can also call anonymously with information about crime to Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
