Mail theft and attempted motorbike theft in Nunhead

[mgdms]

Hi there,

I thought I'd post this as a warning.

Last Thursday between 1.55pm and 2.05pm somebody broke into several mailboxes outside our house seemingly looking for a specific delivery. Some of the mailboxes have been permanently damaged and the guy took off with some mail. We've got CCTV so have it all recorded. Unclear if he took our mail to steal identity/-ies and/or if he had something delivered to our address. The mailboxes are just outside the building so he had a fairly easy access after forcing several of them open. He seemed to have someone waiting for him in a car (looked like a silver Vauxhall Astra) and they drove down Rye Road. We've reported it to the police so let's see if they can track them down.

We are in SE15 3BE.

Also, several days earlier two guys (we assume they were guys) drove past our house around 2am on a scooter looking for motorbikes to steal. We only found out as the cover on my partner's bike was removed so again we checked the CCTV. The guys uncovered the bike to see if they can cut through the locks but because my partner's bike has a rather substantial lock, they left it.

Not sure if this is useful to anyone but thought I'd post it in case it is. Keep safe.
