Christmas crime prevention
With the cold and frosty mornings now upon us - Staffordshire Police are warning all residents not to get left out in the cold by car thieves!
It is always tempting on cold mornings to leave your cars running with keys in ignition, for them to warm up whilst you nip back inside to get a warm jug of water to thaw out the windscreen!
WARNING - this is leaving a warm and welcoming invitation for car thieves to drive off stealing your vehicle or any valuables you may have left on display.
Always keep you cars locked and take keys and valuables with you - Staffordshire Police are giving away free Ice Scrapers for your vehicles - a much safer way to clear a frozen windscreen. These are available at the front desk of both Burton & Uttoxeter Police Stations free of charge - hurry whilst stocks last!
