ATTEMPTED FORCED BREAK-IN ON HIGHFIELD ROAD AT 22:30 ON MONDAY 15TH OCT
This message was originally posted on the nextdoor app.The incident happened on Monday 15th October at 22:30 on Highfield Road in West Acton.-- START --An end of terraced house had it's porch door forced open and it's front door glass smashed as burglars attempted to force entry into what was an occupied house. Police arrived within 5 minutes of being called but the would be burglars ran off - probably when the occupants stirred. Be vigilant for anyone cruising around casing properties. Anyone with CCTV please take a look and see if there's anything that might help police enquiries. Make sure your doors are locked internally and keys removed to a safe distance. Be safe.-- END --I arrived home at 22:17 and noticed a man in his mid 20's, wearing a white t-shirt (cold foggy night) and pretending to be on his phone just as I drove past him on Westfields Road (North Acton Playing Fields), he was very interested in the terraced properties. He definitely looked out of place. Thanks to Ealing Council dimming the street lights after 10pm, the CCTV records in pitch black even if your cameras are amazing.
