SEVERAL people have remarked to me that most mornings around 8am police race along Lanehouse Rocks Road, lights flashing, sirens blazing.

This past week I took notice – every morning this occurred.

I believe the reasons are: One: Most acts of vandalism/burglary happen during the early hours (when no police are around) Two: Vandalism etc is discovered by people getting up going to work.

Three: They report the incidents to the police hence the flashing lights sirens around 8am about six hours too late.

Four: Followed next day by police asking for information through the Echo for crimes between 11pm and 3am.
