Hide AdI was shocked to see two police officers standing on the front step. They asked if I had a Ford Kia and I told them my wife did. “They asked where it was, and I looked behind them because it is always parked out the front on the road.
They then told me that it was at the bottom of the hill. I couldn’t believe it. They saw it happen as they were out on patrol at the time.”
And now residents in the area are being urged to be more vigilant in case this isn’t a one-off incident.
“Luckily no one was hurt this time. But what if someone was crossing the road? It could have been much worse.
This could be a random attack or it could lead to a spate of vandalism. Residents need to be on the look out.”
