Report of theft in the Bays
The Bays Community Group has warned Bays residents to take extra care with their belongings and mail after reports of theft in the Bays area.
"Please be aware that there has been theft in the area," said group president Ms Cathy Gleeson.
"As recently as December 3, a parcel was stolen from the front door of one of the houses in the Bays.
"The incident happened at 7am, in broad daylight, with people nearby witnessing the thieves in a red Toyota (with stolen number plates) speeding off after the theft.
"The incident was reported to the police.
"This is a timely reminder to be vigilant with securing your property.
"If you are having parcels delivered at this time of year, try and make sure that you are home to collect them.
"Make arrangements with your neighbours to keep an eye on your residence if you are going away for the holidays.
"The Bays Community is generally a safe and peaceful place, but we should ensure that we don't get complacent about security," Ms Gleeson said.
