| 2 Feb | Suffolk police issue a countywide warning on metal theft ..... Businesses and members of the public are being urged to be vigilant and report any suspicious persons or vehicles to the police, following a number of thefts of metal and associated items over the past two months. In December 2009 there were at least 30 instances of theft of items such as scrap metal, cabling, lead from roofs, car batteries and components and pipes and plumbing supplies. So far in January 2010 (to 27th) there have been at least 46 reported thefts across Suffolk. The value of metal has increased over time, and people should be vigilant in protecting their property and that of their neighbours. Owners of properties vulnerable to metal theft are urged to make their buildings and sites as secure as possible to keep criminals out. Where possible it is advised to use security lighting to deter thieves, and CCTV can also deter as well as capturing images of offenders and their vehicles. All gates and entrances to premises should be properly secured. Valuable property can be marked and photos taken, to identify it if it s recovered. Industrial Watches are in place in many areas, contact your Community Watch Liaison Officer on 01473 613500 for further details. In some cases several thousand pounds worth of metal in its various forms has been stolen from premises, which takes a considerable amount of time to remove and a vehicle to transport. Any sightings of persons acting suspiciously near building sites or any property with lead roofing, or cold calling looking for scrap metal should be reported to police. Anyone with any information about metal theft should contact Suffolk Police on 01473 613500 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111. _________________________________________________________

| 2 Feb | Suffolk police issue a countywide warning on fraud..... Police are again urging anyone considering buying a dog via the internet to be alert after further reports of a scam designed to get money under false pretences were received by officers. Suffolk Police issued a warning earlier this month after a Rendlesham resident spotted an advert on the internet for a Siberian husky puppy saying all that would be needed to buy the puppy was the cost of transportation several hundred pounds. The buyer was told there was a shipping company involved and was asked to pay half of the cost. She was then asked for more money as refundable insurance. In total £350 was sent off to an address in Africa. The buyer was then told that the dog was stuck at a UK airport and that further cash would be needed for permits and again several hundred pounds was requested. The buyer then contacted the airport and was told there were no dogs awaiting shipment. At this point it was realised this was a scam and no further money was handed over. Police have received several reports of residents in Ipswich, Stowmarket, Felixstowe and Bury St Edmunds being conned in a similar way in recent weeks with a variety of different dogs, usually puppies, including King Charles Spaniels, Pugs and English Bulldogs, being used to entice buyers. Police are urging anyone considering buying a dog off the internet to be cautious and not to send money if there are any doubts the seller may not be genuine. In many of these cases the buyers have transferred money to banks or addresses in Africa despite the seller often giving a story that they are UK based. As with any transaction it is always wise to speak to local sellers/ tradesmen to get quotes or view items before agreeing to purchase as many reputable companies/ dealers will be covered by other guarantees and trade association good practice.

| 4 Jan | Suffolk Constabulary are urging drivers to use caution when driving in wet and icy conditions. At around 8.10pm on 25 Dec, 2 police units attended the A14 at Bury St Edmunds westbound where a taxi had collided with the central reservation. No-one was hurt. The two marked vehicles and cones were positioned to warn oncoming traffic. A Ford Ka approached & collided with an officer and one of the marked vehicles. The officer & his colleague fell over the central reservation and into the eastbound carriageway. One officer suffered arm and leg injuries, the other suffered pelvic injuries, both were minor. The female driver of the Ka suffered whiplash. The A14 was closed westbound until around 3am. Drivers are asked to slow down at the first sight of blue lights in the carriageway, to enable a safe stop if necessary, and to take extra care in wet or icy conditions. The following advice has also been issued for drivers - During wintry weather conditions:
· Ask yourself is your journey essential? Vehicle condition:
In winter it is even more important to check your vehicle is well maintained and serviced. Adjust your driving to the conditions:· Hail, heavy snow and rain reduce visibility. Rain:
In wet weather, stopping distances will be at least double those required for stopping on dry roads. This is because your tyres have less grip on the road. In wet weather: _________________________________________________________

| 17 Dec | Dig out your hats, coats and scarfs .... There is a high risk of severe weather affecting parts of east and southeastern England during Friday (tomorrow). Heavy snow showers will give accumulations of 5-10cm on low ground and 15-20cm over hills. Some drifting snow is likely in the strong north to northeasterly wind.
