    Everyone Read This - Burglar Wants Your Car

    To All Guys and Girls with an Audi please read the below link and make yourselves aware of the 'Scum Bag' who my Team of Officers are looking for at Loughborough Police.

    The convicted criminal is a House and Commercial Burglar, Car Thief and Thefts from vehicles. RS/S type Audis are his interest.

    He is from the Shepshed Loughborough Area and travels extensively.

    He has a liking for all things Audi and is usually in company with a mixed race male - together they travel around the counties of Derbs/Leics/Lincs/Notts and Northants committing crime. They are known to use small white van's similar to Vauxhall Combo and VW Caddy - these vehicles are usually stolen but display genuine plates.

    Earlier this week he was involved in a fail to stop pursuit and rammed one of my colleagues polices cars causing injuring (not too serious luckily).

    He will break into houses and steal car keys and car.

    PLEASE HIDE AWAY ALL CAR KEYS UPSTAIRS in your houses and activate alarms, etc on cars and houses if you have them.

    If you have any information/sightings etc, please report to Leics Police.

    Thanks for reading
    Ed

      He's no hard case!

      Just ensure you take the necessary precautions.

        They done this to a friend of mine a few years ago
        When they could not find the keys to his Focus ST they came upstairs and woke up him and his wife ! :corey:
        For what this cost me so far I could have bought an S2

          They can have the keys to my car if it means leaving my wife and kids alone.... I won't be hiding mine.

            Have to agree that cars are less important than loved ones, especially cars that are just white goods, rather than perhaps a labour of love or something a little special. I'd certainly not risk injury over an A3 S Line TDI

                We've had a bit of a crimewave here in Aberdeen over the last 18 months, almost all were Audi S cars, and the police say that more than 90% were taken with the keys, either those from the glovebox (facepalm) or those just inside unlocked front/back house doors.

                There's never been an S2 stolen here, as far as I'm aware, and that's for the sole fact that our cars don't look like modern £20k+ Audis and tinks don't know what they are, which is one of the reasons we all love our cars

                Anyway, I'd have to disagree with bluequattro. Lock your doors, don't leave your keys beside the door and do take other sensible precautions. Thieves are not brave and they are not clever, if you put enough obstacles in their way then they will not 'attack you in yoru sleep' (rolls eyes) unless they have a very good reason to.

                        I am afraid my girlfriend would be more inclined to nick your dog than your car Alex, a beauty.

                        In all seriousness I would rather loose a car than my life/family etc, however an opportunist is unlikely to come threaten you. If somebody is coming properly prepared to steal something then there is a high chance they will take it.

                        And if you are going to bash a burgular, use something sensible like a big Maglite, not a baseball bat. The law takes a dim view on the use a of a premeditated weapon. If you just happen to be holding a big metal torch (reasonable thing to carry to see where you are going in the dark) and lash out in fear of your life as you were threatened that is self defence, going out with a baseball bat is not. Subtle difference but important in court.

                          Our S2's are probably older than the tea leaf. Shame that people cannot earn what they want. 2 doors need breaking down before they can get at my keys but never say never.

                            Bring it on! Come and try to take anything from me, harm my family or **** with my home and watch what happens. I've never been scared of this human sewage, just take a few sensible precautions.
