A SPATE of thefts from cars has dampened the Christmas spirit for visitors to Bayswater’s Eric Singleton Bird Sanctuary
The weekend after Christmas, police reported five thefts from vehicles in the sanctuary car park and three more in the surrounding area.
“We did have a line of inquiry via iPhone tracking but that didn’t pan out,” says local acting senior sergeant Warren Greaney.
“We are continuing to proactively police these types of offences across the Bayswater sub-district.
“Any place where vehicles are parked for an extended period of time, can be targets for thefts.”
Councillor Chris Cornish says carpark users should be vigilant.
“It is disappointing to hear about the recent spate of car break-ins,” he says.
“I have informed the City of Bayswater ranger and security services so that they are aware of the issue, and have faith that they will be extra vigilant in the area.”
