In recent months, fifteen reports have been made to the police of car burglaries or attempted burglaries in Noord-Sleen. The police speak of a large increase. It concerns burglaries in various places in the village.
Over the whole of last year, the police registered only one burglary of a car in Noord-Sleen.
Police are still investigating the break-ins. “That includes a neighborhood survey,” a spokesperson said. There are talks with local residents and camera images have also been requested to give the police more clarity. “People with a smart doorbell can also report.”
The police are also calling on people in the village to report if they have seen anything. “That is allowed afterwards, but we would rather they call if they see something suspicious.”
