| In this
latest bulletin it is clear crime has been quite sporadic in
location and type committed. While Malmesbury and the
surrounding area continue to be relatively crime free
compared to elsewhere we must remain vigilant and consider
reporting anything we feel doesn't seem right. Had the NHW
member decided to 'mind their own business' about the car in
the field a local criminal may well have been still at
liberty committing crime |
