Two Suspicious Guys on Moped 11.30pm 19/12

Just a heads up really, we all know this type of crime is prevalent but it goes quiet for a bit and perhaps we become complacent or just forget.

Last night at 11.30pm 2 guys on a moped, dressed in black and wearing balaclavas completely covering their faces, were driving around the Champion Hill/Dog Kennel Hill area. They quickly changed direction to follow that of a lone person out walking. They then took a turn into an area to what it appeared was to lie in wait for this person to pass by.

Person realised what may have been about to happen and legged it off in the opposite direction.

Just be aware, stay safe and remind your family/friends that this is still happening in our community.

Am trying to report to 101z
