POLICE NOTICE: Please be aware that Rother Police have seen an increase in breaks to vehicles. It is not just vehicles that have been left open that are being targeted. Windows are being smashed to gain entry. You are asked to pass this message to anyone you can reminding them not to leave valuables in their cars, bags on display etc. It is mainly car parks and lay-bys used by dog walkers that have been targeted in Rother, but not entirely. If you see anyone acting suspiciously, you are urged to call 999 or 101 at the time.
