Twyford has an increased number of car crime offences at present. Offences are mainly happening overnight. Six offences involved the vehicles being insecure, it is probably more than this as some have an unknown MO which are likely to be the vehicle being insecure (one vehicle was left unlocked for 3 days and had a sat nav in a glove compartment which was stolen!). Some of the targeted roads include Yewhurst Close, Poundfield, Broad Hinton, Coleridge Close, Hurst Road, Arnside Close and Carlile Gardens. Property taken- Sat navs, money and a bag.

PROBLEMS WITH AOL - We currently are having problems with AOL addresses which are being spammed out at source. AOL seem to have decided not to accept our Community messaging emails. Our computer people are trying to chase this with AOL and we can only do this via email as they have no telephone contact. The only thing I can do temporarily is to change your messages over to telephone unless you have another email address…perhaps a work one? I’m hoping this will be a temporary glitch and normal service will be resumed asap!

it’s your community…

we need your help on who, what and where – on any of the above or other crimes or anti-social behaviour happening in your area, no matter how small the information seems
