A resident in Lytton Road had some gardening tools stolen from his garage, 
he thinks possibly a week ago.  And then the scooter was stolen from the 
church's parking lot on the corner of Wesley and Milton Roads sometime in 
the morning on Tuesday.  

The reason there might be a link is that the tools stolen were a saw, lob 
shears and hedge shears.  Implements that may well have been used to cut 
through the locks and chains that kept the scooter secured to a tree.   

The owner of the tools has not reported it as he doesn't think the value is 
more than R300.  It is vital to report everything that is a violation of 
your property, your rights etc. because that is the only way we can get 
ahead of the crime.  By using information you give us which we forward to 
OBSID for statistical purposes, and to identify hotspots in the 
neighbourhood so that SAPS have an idea of the nature of crime that is 
likely to occur in any particular area at any particular time.

That way, they can pre-empt it by patrolling a particular area more often 
knowing what they might find.  And the resources are used more effectively 
all round. Please report crime.  Even if it is seemingly small.
