Beware Handbags Snatched From Cars

There have been a number of incidents reported of people sitting in their cars at traffic lights or in a line of traffic, when suddenly someone opens the passenger door and grabs the ladies handbag that has been placed on the passenger seat of the car.

The general area in which this has been reported appears to be around the North Circular, North Finchley, New Southgate, East Finchley, but obviously any area could be targeted.

Please ensure your car doors are locked when you get in. Don’t put your handbag (or computer bag or other valuables) in full view on the passenger seat.

Please report any suspicious activity to the police.

Please pass this on to as many neighbours friends family etc.
