Once again, there has been a series of break-ins in the town. This week several homes have been broken into in Robertson Street and residents are both worried and angry. "Something must be done about this now," said 58-year-old Jack Clements. " It’s time the police got their finger out and caught these villains. A lot of elderly people live around here and they’re terrified. "
A police spokesman told us, "We are doing all in our power to catch the people who are responsible for these burglaries. The police are stretched to breaking point in this town. Because of budgetary requirements we have made drastic reductions in the number of police officers on the beat and this at a time when we are faced with a rising tide of crime, especially among young people. "
Said Dick Rogers, 64, another resident of Robertson Street, " The government should put its money where its mouth is. They’re always going on about the importance of law and order, but we still don’t have nearly enough police. We used to have a police force that was in a class by itself, but now we hear of nothing but cutbacks. "
Mary Roberts, 67 , also a resident of Robertson Street, said, "It’s a sign of the times that these crimes are being committed by young people. It’s just part and parcel of their general attitude. They’re no longer afraid of anyone in authority and have no respect for other people or their property. If we catch any of them around here breaking into houses we’ll give them what for, I promise you.
Inspector James Rowland sympathized with the concern of the Robertson Street residents, but urged them not to take the law into their own hands. "If you do see someone breaking in, get in touch with us immediately. Don’t be tempted to have a go or you could end up being badly injured. We have a lot of officers working on these burglaries at the moment, but up till now we have not made any arrests. We are, however, following up a few lines of enquiry, although we are obviously not in a position at this stage to name names. Meanwhile, we would ask all members of the public to be vigilant and to report anything suspicious to the police. "
