For information, a Kamares resident was woken in the early hours of this morning when a bright light was shone into his bedroom. On investigation, the homeowner found a vehicle parked close to his front door on his drive. He challenged the man with the torch who said 'Security' and left fairly rapidly. There was no identifying logo on the vehicle nor was any ID offered.
Following investigation by the Police and others, it appears that the vehicle was legitimately doing a security check but had gone to the wrong address.
Please therefore be aware that security companies are using unmarked vehicles for patrols but if you find someone on your property or in your area they should show you ID if challenged. If you are unsure as to whether any activity is legitimate or have any doubt, always get a note of the registration number and description of the vehicle [make, model and colour] if you can and contact the Police and myself or Val Potter, KVHA Secretary if you are a Kamares resident.
