Police
have today informed NHW that over the last few
weeks the number of 'small-scale', opportunist
thefts in Bottesford and surrounding areas has
increased. Items stolen have included good quality
garden furniture, planters and even plants, in
addition to breaks into cars for whatever may be
hidden inside. Please take all reasonable care of
your property. As most of these crimes are thought
to be opportunist, why not consider fastening
garden furniture to the ground? Be vigilant at all
times, and PLEASE report all suspicious activity
and vehicles IMMEDIATELY to the Police on 0116 222
2222.

Break-in Bottesford Pre-School
09/08/09 22:04
NHW has tonight (9 August) received the following
information from Bottesford Pre-School, which is
located on Belvoir Avenue:
Somebody person(s) broke into the shed at Bottesford Pre-School last week and threw 2 litres of household paint all over the contents of the shed. This has ruined about £300 worth of sports equipment, outdoor umbrellas and gardening supplies. Not to mention the time we now have to spend cleaning up the mess. Pre-school is a charity and we cannot bear the costs of these sorts of losses.
It has been reported to the Police but whoever did it must have had paint all over their hands at the very least. Would you be able to send a message round on the neighbourhood watch email asking if anybody has had their child come home with paint on them or if anybody knows anything about it. The paint was cream and the incident happened sometime last week (we think Wednesday or Thursday night, but it was definitely between Monday and Thursday night).
If anyone knows anything about this serious, mindless, vandalism or suspects a person or persons may have been involved, would they please contact Leicestershire Police on 0116 222 2222. Alternatively, they may send an e-mail to the Pre-School at enquiries@bottesfordpreschool.org.uk, or NHW at bottesfordnhw@onetel.com.
Please help.
