Police are urging the public to be vigilant following a number of thefts of batteries across West Suffolk since the start of April. Sixty-five batteries have been stolen in three distinct categories – batteries from vehicles and plant, batteries from fencing or bird scarers, and scrap batteries.
Vehicles – keep vehicles in a secure garage, or in a well-lit area. Additional bonnet locks and brackets for batteries are available to keep these areas more secure. Use lighting, alarms, secure gates and CCTV to keep your property safe.
Fences and bird scarers – these are designed for use in more remote areas, so regularly check your equipment and ensure access cannot be gained to your land unlawfully.
Scrap – if you have scrap items, take them to scrap yards or recycling centres as soon as possible rather than leaving them lying around your property. Report to police any suspicious callers, persons or vehicles.
Lead-free batteries are available, which will be less attractive to thieves.
Anyone with any information about battery theft should call Suffolk Police on 01473 613500 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111. Dial 999 if a crime is in progress.

Intelligence has been received indicating that possibility of unlicensed musical events (Raves) being organised at very short notice within the Suffolk area this weekend.
These events bring with them the likely hood of Excessive Noise, Criminal Damage, Public Disorder, Anti-Social Behaviour and Litter, which then incur the owners with considerable clear up costs, not to mention possible damage to the environment.
Please be vigilant and help prevent such nuisance by carrying out the following steps:
1) That gates which give access to fields are secure
2) Ensure that all vulnerable out-buildings are secure
3) You report any sightings of large convoys of cars making their ways onto rural sites
4) Keep an eye out for large vehicles transporting sound equipment
5) Report any information you may come across that a rave may be taking place, be it in any particular area, which could also include disused building sites to Suffolk Police on 01473 613500
Finally and most important of all if you oversee the booking of any halls, clubs or community centres within your area, please make sure that ALL BOOKING REQUESTS, ESPECIALLY ANY LATE BOOKINGS ARE THOROUGHLY VETTED BEFORE BEING GIVEN PERMISSION TO GO AHEAD.
Persons that book such venues should also be wary and properly vet anyone booking these venues at short notice under what may be a pretence that they are for charity.

I had a quick look at the picture yesterday and on a trip out today have spotted 6 or 7 of those within a three mile radius of each other. Some on the A12, the A145 and on some minor roads in the same vicinity. Very odd. Has anybody come up with a reason they are there yet? I would find it hard to believe the local plod are doing something proactive about fighting crime.............. |

They seemed to think it might just be highways agency monitoring traffic levels/congestion especially at junctions? (for planning purposes I suppose)
They aren't much like known police equipment, perhaps they can access them though.
