PEGASUS POST Latest Canterbury news at starnews.co.nz Tuesday October 15 2019 9 Your Local Views Busy time on patrol HAVE YOUR SAY: Have you noticed an increase in thefts or burglaries in your area? Email your views to claire.booker@starmedia.kiwi Christchurch North Community Patrol chairman Sam Hall writes about the group’s achievements over the past few months and provides some tips on how to keep yourself safe OUR PATROL has had a busy few months, averaging 400 volunteer hours and 4000km per month. In August, we reported 52 suspicious vehicles, 10 incidents of suspicious behaviour, found five stolen cars, performed multiple welfare checks and reported 108 pieces of graffiti. We have also assisted at vehicle accidents and a house fire, where our training was put into practice. Our relationship with the Christchurch Charity Hospital has continued and we have been transporting its equipment to the main hospital and patients to and from their appointments. We have been operating in Christchurch for 30 years now and we love working alongside the police and the community. LOOK OUT: Sam Hall and the Christchurch North Community Patrol are encouraging residents to stay vigilant when it comes to safety. We have an amazing group of volunteers who are all well trained and police vetted. Our patrollers are a mixture of young and old, men and woman. Some are retired, a number are police recruits, and others are just people wanting to help out in their community. If you would like to join us, then you would be most welcome. We have a Facebook page, which has provided a great way for people to get in touch with us and find out what we do. As well as the hotspot and burglary maps that the police give us, we have been able to add more areas of concern to our patrol routes. We adjust our times and routes with this information, and we have added later shifts and concentrated patrols in these streets. With an increase in activity in our area, we suggest you remove valuables from your cars when you lock up. Invest in car alarms, and keep vigilant with regards to unwanted people on your streets. Our motto when patrolling is if something doesn’t look right – then it probably isn’t. If you see something or someone, and they are still in the area, then phoning 111 is your best option. This will get the police there fast. You could also take down number plates, descriptions, and a direction of travel if you can. If they are long-gone, or there is something that doesn’t require a police presence right away, then you can call the 105 number to report it. Keep safe, and look after your neighbours. •To find out about the patrol, visitwww.facebook.com/ chchnorthcommunitypatrol/ DAMAGE: Christina Davey’s Bishopdale home had a rock thrown through its window one Sunday night while she was at home. House windows smashed by rocks •From page 1 In August, the patrol reported 52 suspicious vehicles, 10 incidents of suspicious behaviour, found five stolen cars, performed multiple welfare checks and reported 108 pieces of graffiti throughout suburbs across the north west. But police say they are not aware of anything out of the ordinary in regards to crime in the area. Senior Sergeant Roy Appley said he was not aware of any specific issues in Bishopdale until the Pegasus Post spoke to him about the incidents of rocks through windows. “Rocks through windows is not a normal occurrence, but residents should know there is a sergeant and five constables specifically focused Roy Appley on Bishopdale and the north west,” she said. He said communication was “working well” between the community patrol and police.
