Din-Al-View CPF (Sector Five) is appealing to all its residents to assist with patrolling (vehicle\/foot) the sector.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe need more active patrollers on our roads to gather information on suspicious activities; an increase in patroller visibility will also deter criminals,\u201d said Jane Dijkman, the public relations officer for the Din-Al-View CPF.<\/p>

<\/div>\n

\u201cWe have seen an escalation in our crime rate this month.<\/p>\n

\u201cDuring the first week of April, three houses were burgled, two homes were robbed while the residents were present, one motor vehicle was stolen and property was stolen out of a parked vehicle in the area.\u201d<\/p>

<\/div>\n

Residents’ involvement is required to address the criminal activities in the neighbourhood by being the eyes and ears of the community.<\/p>\n

\u201cLet us be proactive and prevent ourselves from becoming victims of crime and another statistic,\u201d said Dijkman.<\/p>\n

Residents of Albemarle, Dinwiddie, Castleview, Union and Norton Small Farms, who would be prepared to make a difference in this sector, can contact patrol coordinator Tony Purnell on 078 513 2510, or email to him at patrol@dinalview.co.za.<\/p>\n

Patroller training will be provided.<\/p>\n
