Residents should also be reminded that you should inform the police of anyone who looks suspicious, immediately. Don’t leave it till it’s too late, to help the police catch these criminals. And, don’t feel that you are wasting Police time; your calls will be taken seriously. Your information could be vital and help the police catch these villains. I hope the police catch these thieves very soon?

I just wanted to urge people in Charlbury to be particularly careful in securing their homes as we were burgled on Friday night of 10 September. We had been working in the garden late and inadvertently left our french doors unlocked. We discovered the next morning that someone had entered our home while we slept and stolen my husband's laptop used for his business and his wallet and credit cards. I cannot tell you how sick I feel to think that someone entered our home while we slept. I just wondered if anyone else in Charlbury had been through a similar experience recently.
