Four young men dressed in dark clothing, wearing hats and generally looking suspicious were seen wandering around Clay Street in the dark at about 6pm on Sunday 26th October. They had no torches or reflective clothing as you might expect a walker to have at that time of night and had no obvious justification for being there - so keep your eyes peeled. If you are one of those four people and did have justification to be there, let us know so that we're not criminalising you unjustly.

This follows another event in the area a couple of weeks earlier where an uninvited car was found parked in the drive of Corner House (where Clay Street meets the Wickham Skeith Road) one Friday lunchtime. There was a male passenger and female driver on a mobile phone. They left the premises "with attitude" when pressed. It's hard to imagine anything other than ill-intent in a situation like this.

So, be vigilant with your own security and keep your eyes open for your neighbours. If you see / hear anything suspicious, post some comments here so that everyone knows the situation.
