Caravan Break In
Had an attempted break In to my van in the early hours of Sunday morning. Luckily, my young neighbour, whos a night owl heard the clunk of the window latches being broken. The thief was under the cover looking inside with a torch and leged it when my neighbour disturbed him.
Never heard a thing till the lad rang my doorbell at 03:00!!!
Police finaly arrived at 10:00!!!!!
We also found, close by a rucksac which looked like it had come form another breakin..
This has highlighted to me, just how flimsy the window latches are. One on the bottom and one of the stays are broken. Luckily, the windows OK and the latches are the slide on type, already sent for replacements.
I'm wondering if a cover is worth it, has it provided the thief with some cover. Neighbour only seen his legs sticking out beneth the cover. After all this, there is nothing in the van worh stealing even though its on my drive, we remove everything except the water barrel and waste container.
Next job, window alarms!!!!!!!!!
