Got this in my e-mail today:
Date : Friday 6th July, 2007
Time: Between 4pm - 5pm
Location : Jenny's Wok Car Parks, South (two of them) manned each by a (one) car park attendant.
The Incident :the owners of 3 vehicles, a RAV-4, a CR-V, and a Nissan Primera, had their vehicles back door glass smashed, and their bags, 2 of which had laptops and multimedia equipment, stolen. One of the guys just had documents in his bag, his bag was not stolen when the bandits realized there was no valuable equipment to them. But his glass was still smashed anyway.
The bandit : They pretend to be talking on their cell phones, having a conversation, while walking through the car park, checking out what people leave in their front/back seats and floors. They love to work when it is rainy (these days it's raining almost every day).
What the owner/manager says: They have a disclaimer sign. Nothing they can do. blah. Car park attendants, who are young school boys, claim to have seen nothing, even though they were there, and the incidents happened within this same time frame.
What people have to always remember to do : Never Never leave any valuables, bags, papers, even grocery bags inside on the seats/floor of the cars. Store everything in the trunk of the vehicle. The one time it slips you, you will have to pay dearly for your oversight.
There have also been recent incidents just this past week of parts of vehicles, especially Almeras, being targeted, lamps, indicator lens etc. being stolen from the car, when parked up at the Piarco Airport. Not to mention it continues on a daily basis at Gulf City and Trincity malls.
We know how truly efficient our police service is. Please be vigilant.
