Cracking Crime in East Kent

For over 15 years, the guv'nor here at Wiseworld has worked with Kent Police in various roles to help reduce crime and the fear of crime. He has even got an award from Mike Fuller, the Chief Constable to say so!

Unfortunately more pressing demands mean that he can no longer make this a regular committment.

However, he still likes to keep his ear to the ground, and if he hears something interesting, especially if police are seeking information or witnesses, asks us to publish it here.

If you know anything about any of the crimes published, you can call East Kent Police on 01227 762055. Alternatively, call Kent Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111 if you wish to remain anonymous - you might even get a reward!

And you might even want to visit Kent Police for all the latest news and information in your area.

Keep 'em peeled!
