Dodgy activity on Ondine Road

[Erin]

Just to let everyone know, I was at home this morning (by chance and by luck) and was going downstairs, when I saw the shadow of someone standing at the door. I assumed it might be someone delivering a package and opened the door, only to find a startled a young man in a hoodie. He asked for 'David', clearly having nothing else to say to me, and then left very quickly. I can't help but feel that I was minutes from being burgled!

Thanks. Any more information on eg age, height, build, colour, hair, distinctive features, clothing?

He looked about 17, slim, not very tall maybe aroun 5'9, was wearing a grey hoodie, shaved head, sparse facial hair. Dark hair and eyes. Looked mixed race to me (white/asian - not sure?), was quite sallow in skin tone.

I came home in winter one year to see a lady, maybe 30, walking up my steps. I did not recognise her and asked who she wanted. She gave the name of someone who did not live at my house. Now what I should have done was say yes, I'll just get her and see what the response with. She then seemed to vapourise. I reported it to whoever (crime cascade, community police) and was told that a small group was doing the rounds casing joints.

One break in in 20 odd years, and this, but not a lot else. I hope the rest of you are similarly crime free

HAVE/DID YOU TOLD THE POLICE?

This is exactly the type of information and description they'd like to be told.

I think you should let the police know what happened and the description, as i read on here that in the last couple of weeks there have indeed been burglaries in Ondine and also Muschamp Road.
