Robbery & Moped theft linked

[Peckham Rye LPT]

Dear forum members.

Some of you may or may not know, motorcycle/moped theft is on the increase in and around where you live. The reason for this is so the criminals have access to a pool of stolen vehicles to commit street crime, predominantly robberies of mobile phones from victims using them in the street ,crossing roads and commuting to and from work in the north of the borough.

The Peckham Rye SNT would like to alert you all to this, so you can secure your vehicles in better ways at home, commuting and parking up anywhere. This could help reduce the thefts.

If you use your phone walking around these areas it is paramount that you remain vigilant as you may be at risk of being a target.

Please don?t hesitate to contact the Police with any information if you see any of these crimes occur and could help.

We want this information to protect you and your property and prevent you from being a victim.

Kind Regards

PECKHAM RYE SNT.

Just buying icecream on Lordship Lane, my partner witnessed attempted scooter theft and a chap waving a knife around, it's no joke. The police got him i believe.

Could have gone all Dirty Harry: "But being this is a Double Chocolate Magnum, the most powerful ice cream in the world and would blow your head clean off, you've gotta ask yourself one question: "Do I feel lucky?" Well, do ya, punk?"
